Anyone struggling with low Blood pressure (orthostatic hypotension) and using droxidopa? How to manage? Thx!
But his dose of
stalevo
every 4 hours brings BP down! Droxidopa brings it up but never stable! Now on 200 mg in am and 100mg 2 more times if needed. Any suggestions as to management? Still experimenting. He falls if too low and it’s unannounced!

Use of soluble Prolopa(madopar) to bridge shortfalls between doses
I’m taking
Stalevo
75 mg 5 x a day, every 3 3/4 hours but today I kept going off too soon. I use small doses of Prolopa 125 dispersible ( soluble ) occasionally in ‘emergences’ but not every dose. I kept to a quarter tab each time so 1 and 1/4 tabs. It moreorless worked but not great.

LOW BP!!!!
Seems about 1.5 hours after a dose of
stalevo
is when it drops then he takes 10 mg of midodrine. It’s a constant thing! He has to stand about a minute before walking to be sure he’s stable. Try to make him drink through day, Anyone else going thru this and how do you manage it! Thx

DBS levadopa challenge. Glad its over, but it does raise a question.
My normal day starts at 4:30am when i take my
Stalevo
125mg. I'm very slow, shakey, and have some dystonia in my left side, but by 5:30 im ok to head off to work. This morning I missed that dose, the next one which I'd take at 7am and a third one which I'd take normally take at 10am.

Could Amantadine cause sleep problems?
In addition to
stalevo
100mg 6 times a day and resagaline. I have for the past two weeks been taking Amantadine 100mg once each morning with the intention to increase it to twice a day from next week.

Best approach to reducing Dyskinesia
I'm currently taking 6
Stalevo
100mg each day at 6am, 8am, 10am, 1pm, 4pm, and 6pm. I also take Resageline 1mg.Over the last 18 months I have seen an increase in Dyskinesia, mainly later in the day and usually worse as the meds wear off.

Weighing tablets
The measurements below are raw (uncalibrated) weights (mg) of
Stalevo
tablets (levodopa 75, carbidopa 18.57, entacapone 200). 5 tablets were weighed from each of two batches. Each tablet (A to E) was weighed 3 times. The pills came from unopened plastic pill tubs, with a foil cover.

Levadopa
I have just started to take Levadopa (
Stalevo
75mg * 3 per day). Any view on how long it has taken you to take effect and work at full efficacy? I am already on Sifrol, Amanadin, Azilect and Dekinet (which he wants me to gradually reduce)

Deterioration since coming off neuro patches
He has extra
stalevo
instead, his behaviour has changed dramatically he is very mixed up, talks in riddles and basically doesn’t seem to comprehend any conversations. It’s so hard to get him to make to make sense, I’m trying to get him back on the neuro patches ASAP.

90% paralysed from the waist down when OFF the influence of L-Dopa. Does anyone share these symptoms ?
The solution is to wait 45 to 60 mins for the L-Dopa (
Stalevo
125mg 6 X/day) to kick-in and here I go, walking perfectly well. On a good day I walk 4km in 40mins. Physically fit 65 yrs old male, diagnosed with non-tremor PD 5 years ago - and getting seriously worried!

When is a side effect not a side effect?
And that, for me, brings in Sinemet (well, actually, in my case,
Stalevo
). One of the listed side effects of Sinemet is constipation.

Storage of Medication During the Summer Months
Glancing at my
Stalevo
it says must keep at 25 degrees centigrade, 77 degrees Fahrenheit. Deviations from that are 15 to 30 degrees centigrade; 59 to 86 degrees Fahrenheit. I know at my place during the summer, it can exceed 90 degrees Fahrenheit indoors easily.

We all know that exercise is vital for us, but I did not think I would be able to delay my intake
Stalevo
by one hour right after a certain protocol of exercises, and not suffer the usual consequences.
