Calling for B6 test results in PD: Unveiling the dosage dilemma
This regardless it's form, P5P or pyridoxine, and even the
Carbidopa
intake. Out of the about 20 test results to date almost none fell within the desired minimum and maximum reference range.It may be because the problem cases in particular are reporting.

Drug induced Dyskinesia - some measures to control
She develops drug induced dyskinesia with Levodopa/
Carbidopa
CR tablets. She finds the dyskinesia pain intolerable somedays. Particularly today the evening dose gave approximately 2.5 hours of hand and lips twitching. Usually it begins approximately 1 hour after taking it.

Carbidopa

Update on IPX203
“the FDA rejected
carbidopa
, one of the two main ingredients, and requested additional information about it. The agency noted that pharmacokinetic studies pointing to the safety of
carbidopa
have not been established and said more research is needed.” This makes no sense to me.

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

medication that is stomach friendly
Curious if anyone has any idea of any PD medication that is easier on the gut, than
carbidopa
levodopa. Any information would be great. Thanks.

For People With Parkinson's Taking Levodopa Medication: The Danger of B6 Deficiency Is Dire and Vastly Outweighs the Danger of B6 Excess
[u]
How Much P5P To Take
[/u] Many people, myself included, can tolerate dosages similar to their intake of
carbidopa
- I personally take a daily dose of 70 mg of P5P, versus a daily intake of
carbidopa
of about 60 mg.

Switch to Mucuna
Is there a method to calculate green tea against equivalent
carbidopa
doses? Is brewed green tea better or green tea extract capsule? Is there any interaction between green tea and vitamin B6, similar to
carbidopa
? Is Mucuna+
carbidopa
better than Mucuna+green tea? Or vice versa?

Mucuna Pruriens
I would like to substitute mucuna pruriens for the
Carbidopa
levodopa. I have 500 mg capsules standardized to 20% L-dopa (not exactly sure what that means). How much levodopa is that? My C/L Rx is 10-100 mg, 4 times daily. How many 500mg mucuna capsules do I take as an equivalent?

Guidance for RLS
I did take
Carbidopa
-Levodopa for several months, which eased my RLS significantly, but now it's back in full force and the
Carbidopa
-Lev. doesn't work anymore. I've written more about my RLS journey in my bio profile if you want to read it. I'm looking for any advice anyone can give me.

Variation in dose: doctor to doctor
At its simplest in a regimen formed entirely of
carbidopa
/levodopa we see daily doses of between 50 and 2000mg, perhaps more.

CARBIDOPA 25/LEVODOPA 100MG TAB For RLS
I know this drug was talked about in relation to Parkinson's. My doctor has prescribed it for my RLS when I travel in an airplane. I am only to take no more than 3 tablets per week. Has anyone used this for traveling? Any help? Side effects? Comments, please.

High-dose DHA and dyskinesia (my experience so far)
I've been using mucuna plus Rx'd
carbidopa
since the end of September 2022 (and mucuna alone for some time prior to that with inconsistent results).

When will we reconcile with the fact that there is no cure now? Possibly never?
Because we are dependent on
Carbidopa
levodopa which is actually a lot of like an addiction. Any cure depends on the ability to wean off
carbidopa
levodopa, which is pretty much impossible without solid cooperation from the medical community.

Interesting(and extremely painful)side effect from Parkinson's to be aware of.
How this ties in with my Parkinson's is I realized that when I was having an off time with my
carbidopa
/levodopa therapy my body would tense-up triggering a spasm in my QL muscle. After doing PT, ice/heat, lidocain shot and finally dry needling, I think it finally calmed down, YAY!

Tremors are still there
I started 4 weeks ago with 25/100
Carbidopa
-Levodopa , 3 pills a day. I am taking them every 8 hours without side effects. I am disappointed that my right hand tremors (main motor problem) are still constantly there. They have never disappeared .

Is Rytary really working better than Carbidopa/Levodopa?
I started on
Carbidopa
/Levodopa 25/100, 3x a day and then went up to 4x a day. Primary troubling symptom is peripheral neuropathy and toe curling which causes balance issues and painful walking.
