> I posted a few days ago that my pdoc suggests I try seligiline 20mgs in a pharmacist compounded cream form. I guess the pharm. says that he can compound the seligiline into a cream, thus rendering transdermal delivery of the drug (like the patch) but without the patch. ( I live in the USA).

diane, there are a few posts concerning the selegiline patch higher-up on the board. evidently, it sounds quite promising. however: if your doc is recommending a pre-release version via a formulary, keep in mind the statement concerning the salt vs. free base and the delivery system (cream/gel/ointment/solvent)....all the best, chemist
