Farmgal, I took Rilutek, Vitamin E, Co-enzyme Q-10 and Melatonin. I got dirrhea from all this and lost 15 poinds. My neuro told me to stop taking anything. Now i am on Dannon Activia, and am very well regulated (in bowel movements) so I am back on Vit E. But my wife insists that I try Rilutek again, because my progression is too fast to suit her and me. Day after tomorrow, I will start again. I hope it will work. But I suggest that you not take a bunch of other stuff with Rilutek, even if a neuro says do it. Unless you have an iron gut, which I don't.
My wife was a North Dakota farm girl when I married her. From the Belfield, Dickinson area. That has been 55 yeas ago.
Best Wishes. I hope you fare well with Rilutek.
