I don't think there is a way for anyone to know, in part because of the variations in purity and quality. Were it me, I'd take one or the other. If you're going to take both at the same time, you can only go by how you feel.

I'll take both. I take a 25/100 at 8am and half spoon of Zandopa at 9am, it allows me to be functional for 6 hours, then I take my 2nd dosis at 2pm and 3pm respectively. When I'm on the road I substitute the Zandopa with 7 capsules of Mucuna 15%. That works for me.

Do you take anything for nausea with the 7 15%?capsules?

I don't get nausea with the mucuna capsules. When I first started taking carbidopa/levadopa I experienced nausea and stomach issues on the 1st week, but then my body got used to it.
