I have never used Zandopa powder so I can not help you. Hopefully there will be someone here that can, but I want to welcome you to our group.

If you put either Zandopa or mucunna Puriens into the search facility on this forum you will find a large number of posts about people's experiences of using if. Go to the top right hand corner of the site and there is a box saying 'search Parkinsons movement'. Enter Zandopa into that box and search.

8gms three times a day

Hi Nelly,

This is Gautam from Goa, India. The recommended dosage by Zandu Pharma is 2x7.5 gms of Zandopa = 1x100/25 Sinemet. But I find that a bit on the higher side. I find that 1x5gms of Zandopa for 1 tablet of Sinemet 25/100 works best for me. Of course it may vary from person to person and you will have to see whats best for your Mum.

Regards

gautam

2.2g of Zandopa is equivalent to 88mg of levodopa?

7.5 g sachet = 300mg levodopa

1 tsp = 2.60g

7.5 g = 2.88 tsp

There are a number of very important questions which we would like to see answered on the Forum. Those answers are immediately for all transparent, so that everyone can learn from each other directly. Where appropriate, IOCOB comment.

How many years are there clear symptoms of Parkinson's disease?

How many and which regular medication for Parkinson's disease was taken before with Mucuna Pruriens was started?

What is the reason to use Mucuna Pruriens to want to go?

How many weeks is Mucuna Pruriens used and on what daily dose are you on? Please specify, if for example I use a total of 30 grams of Mucuna Pruriens, Zandopa per day, in 6 gifts per day by 5 grams.

What mainstream anti-Parkinson medication is taken, and how much of it is taken up now Mucuna pruriens is also used?

Response

1. I have already 7 years suffer from clear Parkinson

2. I took 3 times a day, 125 mg Sinemet

3. I heard good stories about them and I want to postpone raising of Sinemet as long as possible, because I'm only 50.

4. I use four times daily 5 grams Zandopa

5. I use less Sinemet, 3 times a day, 65.5 mg

6.5

7.7

8.3 (very stiff muscles)

9.6

10. Heavy feeling on the stomach

11. I have since the Mucuna much less burden of starting problems, and feel much more energetic. But at the same time it looks like I'm nauseous more often
