Carbidopa/Levodopa??
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?

Dangerous Supplement. Mucuna Pruriens. Dangerous side effects you must know.
Counter reaction to
carbidopa
levodopa
is unmanageable and unpredictable. Makes combining it with real Parkinson's medications a night mare. Maybe just a weed with a placebo effect wasting time and money while delaying proper medical efforts clinically proven to work.

How long off mirapex before moving on?
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?

How Much Carbidopa Levodopa After 5-10 Years? Any other meds?
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.

Rasagiline?
I had an appointment with a neurologist who wants me to continue taking
Carbidopa
-
levodopa
, but also take Rasagiline. The side effects and food interactions list seem onerous and dangerous to me. And, it is rather expensive. I canceled the prescription until I understand this drug better.

HDT- B1 overdose and worsening of symtoms
I still have more tremor, could not sleep, and
Levodopa
/
carbidopa
does not seem to have the same effect as before. Could be this worsening of symtoms caused by B1?

Amantadine questions
I'm on
carbidopa
/
levodopa
, entacapone and amantadine (100 mg 3x/day). Do you find it causes swelling in the feet, lower legs and hands? If you came off the drug, what was the upside and the downside? How did you come off of it? I understand that you can't quit it abruptly. Thanks for reponses

Experience with tapering Neupro, Dopamine Agonists, and managing DAWS
I'm a 56-year-old male, diagnosed with PD 11 years ago, and have been on agonists combined with
carbidopa
/
levodopa
(C/L) since 2018. With my neurologist's assistance, I am currently tapering off the Neupro patch (10mg) due to severe impulse control disorders (ICD) over the past year.
