Azilect is a drug approved for Parkinsons. It is an MAOI-B, meaning inspite of the FDA warning there are no dietary restrictions or medication interactions to worry about -- One only has to be concerned if on an MAOI-A such as Parnate. It is currently in a trial for ALS. I discovered that Azilect stops neurons from dying (apoptosis) and started the medication February 10. My symptoms have improved a bit and have not progressed further. I also take Riluzole and Nuedexta (yes Dextromorphan/Quinidine and I received the FDA warnings about Dextromorphan and Azilect which at the bottom says Selegiline (another MAOI-B) does not interact with Dextromorphan). Nuedexta helps with speech as well as PBA symptoms..
