Experiences with

Carbidopa / Levodopa

Anyone taking Nourianz and Gocovori together with Carbidopa /Levodopa? I am following this regimen which has been largely benign. Just wanted to know if anyone else has experiences to share.

Diagnosed in 2022, late onset at age 75 with slight symptoms before. Slightly dragging my left foot and unable to run was alarming and led me to get checked out. A recommended DATSCAN REVEALED a Dopamine shortage but not severe. Very slight additional symptoms. Doc recommended a very low dose initially

What do you do when carbidopa-levodopa "off" times get inconsistent, more frequent, or it seems the C/L didn't work at all? I get extremely uncomfortable, uncoordinated and so incredibly weak.Thank you!

Hi all, I’m 7 years post diagnosis and about 5 years into Carbidopa Levodopa medication. I am fortunate that I don’t need c/l to sleep so I generally don’t take any meds after dinner.

I was diagnosed with PD since 4 years and I take Mucuna capsules, Carbidopa Levodopa 4x daily and my neurologist recently added Entacapone to my regimen but nothing has helped this nasty symptom. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Maddie

Earlier this month, the FDA approved Amneal Pharmaceuticals’ investigational agent IPX203, an oral formulation of carbidopa/levodopa (CD/LD) extended-release capsules, as a treatment for patients with Parkinson disease (PD).

I’ve been taking carbidopa/levodopa for 2 years. Helped so much but I believe augmentation is kicking in. Where before I had to take 1 to relieve symptoms, it now takes 2. Very depressing. I was watching a YouTube video on castor oil and how many health benefits it has.

I am having a problem trying to find the right dose of Carbidopa/Levodopa 25/100.

They are: Ropinirole Baclofen Carbidopa/Levodopa Clonazepam Gabapentin Tizanidine I do excerise, I have been in physical therapy for left knee replacement Feb, March and 1/ 2 of April and then again in June and still in physical therapy for my 2nd right knee replacement.

My Movement Disorder doctor is on vacation and I noticed that I only have 1 Carbidopa/Levodopa Extended Release 50 mg/200 mg tablet left. For many years I have always taken 1 such pill before bed to get me through the night since it's extended release.

A friend with infrequent rls says carbidopa levodopa works almost instantly when symtoms began. Because I mays go several days without rls, I would rather have a med that I can take as needed rather than taking a med daily when most days I don't need it. Is this too good to be true?

I have always taken Carbidopa/Levodopa for my RLS. I have always been told it is usually given to Parkinson’s patients but I don’t have Parkinson’s. Anyone else take it?

dyskinesia compared with immediate-release levodopa/carbidopa (IR-LD/CD) at week 12.

I've been put on Carbidopa-Levodopa to replace the dopamine I'm not making, I learned. There was relief in just getting a diagnosis. I was afraid it was MS, and apparently, I would have been better off if it was.

I think I have most symptoms , although I don’t have sleep issues, constipation or tremor. 5/11 developed either akathisia or dyskinesia Here are my current PD meds: Carbidopa Levodopa (Started 5/11/24 try to eliminate dyskinesia/akathisia 25/100 1 tab 7am Amantadine (started 5/27/24) try

She started me on carbidopa-levodopa, and it is my third day. I'm happy to say I don't know anyone with this disease and though I have looked at some reputable sites; Mayo Clinic and Cleveland Clinic I want to know more.

Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved CREXONT® (carbidopa and levodopa) extended-release capsules for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease (PD).

Could those of you who have been diagnosed for 5 to 10 years let me know your daily Carbidopa levodopa intake and let me know if you take any other medications as well? I should add that I am 61 years old and I'm in reasonably good health other than the PD.

Neurologist #6 tried levodopa/carbidopa and got Parkinson’s diagnosis. 2019 diagnosed with MSA probably C. Released from neurologist and now in Hospice for pain management. Has anyone experienced pain in jaw and traveling up my face into head? Can this be caused by MSA?

Hi Have you noticed any difference between brand and generic type of Carbidopa / Levodopa in regard to effectiveness or side effects. Appreciate your help
