Expert Advice

You have been prescribed Rasagiline to treat your symptoms of Parkinson's disease.
It can be taken with or without food, or as directed by your doctor.
Be cautious while driving or performing tasks that require concentration, as Rasagiline can cause significant drowsiness.
Rasagiline may lead to dizziness or lightheadedness, particularly when standing up suddenly from a sitting or lying position.
Inform your doctor if you are also taking medications for depression or mood disorders.
Do not discontinue Rasagiline abruptly, as sudden cessation may result in confusion, muscle stiffness, and a high fever.
As a precaution, avoid foods high in tyramine (e.g., aged cheeses, air-dried meats, soy sauce, tap/draft beers, and red wine) while taking Rasagiline, as they may cause an unsafe increase in your blood pressure.
