> My worry is that Trivastal has too much activity at D2, and not enough at D1. Functionally, the effect may be to increase hyperactive, hedonic behavior without giving much help with what I really need -- attention, focus, verbal fluency. Prefrontal dopamine, which might be more D1. So I dunno, especially if I do end up wanting to block some of the adrenergic effects.

> Then again, Mishal described "laser-sharp focus" and high interest in what he was doing, so hopefully I'll pick up some of that.When you consider people with pd can take up to 5 pills the adregenic affects shouldn't be severe at 1 pill as a start. That is what is unique about this med.Otherwise you would be better off with a more standard dopamine agonist. NE can also play an important role in depression. I talked with someone who used it and he didn't find it to stimulating certainly not like a classical stimulant.Anyhow I will probably try it as an adjunct to low dose luvox.From what I read on the servier site their also prescribing this for cognitive difficulties.
