Who or where does one call or email for the connection with the PAN Foundation to get Rytary with no out of pocket $$$? It is very expensive; just paid $367. for 30 days for a regimen of 4 MG95 capsules (I'm in the doughnut hole right now, and will be paying $1,100. per 90-day period. Right now my neurologist is touting its benefits, buy so far (after 8 weeks, or so, on the drug) I am feeling so-so,only.

Hello @hjscheib and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect's Parkinson's discussion group. You asked how to contact the PAN Foundation for help with medication costs. Here is their website, https://www.panfoundation.org/.

If you are comfortable sharing more: how long ago were you diagnosed with PD? Have you tried other meds before Rytary? What is the most difficult symptom you are now experiencing?

I understand that Rytary is quite expensive. You mentioned that after 8 weeks on Rytary you are just feeling "so-so." Did your doctor mention how long you needed to use it before you would be aware of any improvement?
