Questions and Answers

1. Can I take Prolopa if I have a sleep disorder?
Answer: If you have a history of sleeping disorder or if you’re taking medications to treat it, you will want to talk to your doctor about the risks and how taking this medication could affect it. In some cases, it may just mean adjusting the dosage or having special monitoring. In other cases, Prolopa may not be recommended.

2. Can my child take Prolopa?
Answer: Prolopa is not approved for anyone younger than 25 years old. Benserazide may cause deformities in the bone density and growth for anyone under this age, so it is not advisable for children.

3. What should I do if I need to stop taking Prolopa?
Answer: This medication should not be stopped suddenly, as severe withdrawal side effects can occur.
