Husband took Invega in December, began drooling, shuffling, slurred speech. Then they tried Abilify, not as bad but still not with it. Neurologist diagnosed parkinson's 4/2/2008 He did fine at first and now all he wants to do it sleep. Parkinson's symptoms are gone. Is it possible that the drugs could have caused the parkinson's symptoms and now the sinemet is making him sleep all the time?

Have you taken him back to the psychiatrist and talked to them about the medication interactions? That is very important, especially with things with the neurologist issues, etc.
