My neurologist has prescribed Riluzole 50mg twice a day. He told me to reduce the dosage to once a day for two weeks to see how I tolerate it. After three pills I am already experiencing loss of appetite. As a new ALS victim (is this the appropriate term?) it doesn't seem to be a good time to be losing weight. Is loss of appetite a temporary side effect?
