Hi all I apologize for the spelling! Question of the week. My PALS was diagnosed with ALS in 2014. Right away they did put him in the rilzole. 2 yrs later and progression furthered but not at a fast progression he has elected to stop taking it. Any opinions on that? Good bad or indifferent? Txs

Is anyone still taking Riluzole/Rilutek? Pros/cons, anything will help. I'm considering stopping it.

Please let me know about your personal experience with Riluzole. Has it been helpful? Are there any side effects that are concerning? Thanks in advance for sharing your experience.

Anybody out there take probiotics with riluzole? Haven't found any drug interactions online and just wondering if anyone else takes them. I have occasional flair ups of IBS and the probiotics help. Vince
