Is anyone using Rytary?

Unfortunately, Rytary didn't work for me. However, I have had PD for 5 years and have a very sensitive system when it comes to PD meds. Sometimes I think I have tried all combinations of meds but continue to strive for the perfect fit. With that said, I believe over all that I have seen more positive than negatives comments on Rytary

I’ve been on Rytary since my first diagnosis. My dosage and frequency has changed over this period. I now take 2 - 145mg - 5 times a day. Rytary is working for me. I still have “off” times. My last dose is 11 pm. My first dose is 7 am. I have have sleep issues. I do take Tylenol PM and natural Melatonin. For the most part they help for me. But I rarely sleep past 6 am unless I am very tired. I do some days wake up at 4am. My doctor has ask if I want a sleep prescription but I have put that off. Not wanting to go down that road. I have ask others in my Parkinson’s therapy group about sleep. The majority have some issue. On Rytary or something else. I believe it is one of the symptoms we have to live with. My opinion if Rytary works for the other symptoms I can handle the sleep issue.
Best of luck.
