Also bypassing hepatic first pass metabolism. Resulting in that 1,25mg Xilopar equals 10mg oral selegiline. the blood levels of metabolites (N-Desmethylselegilin, I-Methamphetamin und I-Amphetamin) is thereby 88% to 92% lower than with oral (10mg) selegiline.

>That's interesting info, I hit google & it looks like Xilopar is available in half of Europe. I am somewhat jealous that you are able to get this med, which naughty country do you live in? :) When looking for info on these drugs I am constantly stunned on how much stuff English speaking countries miss out on.
