Using natural carbidopa with mucuna
We're thinking of combining it with prescription carbidopa, something like
entacapone
(we, re in the UK), but wanted a last attempt at diy PD treatments, as have worked well for quite a while. Advice from anyone with experience of using mucuna would be appreciated.

Madopar VS Sinemet
Hence, he doesn't have any issue with my mucuna usage and even prescribed me
entacapone
to be used with it sometimes last year. My Neurologist has given up on me because of my insistence of not increasing my sinemet's dosage and doesn't buy the mucuna's success story.

Vitamin B (Thiamine)
My legs and limb are wobbling while walking but i feel improvement in my balance after taking levodopa/carbidopa/
Entacapone
(100/25/400)/day and Q10, 200 mg/ day. Does B1 helping strengthening wobbliness? is it ok to use B-complex or just B1 (thiamine)?

CONFUSED with MY diagnoses/ Cerebral Ataxia.
Then 2 months ago My GP has now started new meds called Levadopa/Carbidopa/
Entacapone
. Frankly it is working better and my movement is much improved and wobbling go after having meds effects of 2,3 hours and sustains for almost 5-6 hours (till its on-time).

From Amantadine To Entacapone..... I emailed my neurologist explaining all the bad symptoms I am having.....
Emailed dr. letting her know I was stopping amantadine, last yr she had given me
entacapone
but never took it. So she told me if I wanted to give entacampone a chance. Now I am afraid to try any new medication, is anyone on this medication? If so, any bad side effects?

Entacapone side effects
I have been put on
entacapone
200mg with sinemet 25/100 3 x a day & I have been experiencing terrible sweating at night. At first, I thought maybe it's just going through menopause, but this sweating is way different, because I am literally sweating from my head to my toes.

I am currently experimenting on myself, only because i cant find a dr who is familiar with mucuna, so I am taking three sinemen and three
entacapone
and fill the rest with muncuna.

Orthostatic hypotension tidbits : PIGD, amantadine
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/22336566/ CONCLUSION: OH was significantly related to older age, polypharmacy and amantadine or diuretics intake, while
entacapone
exposure appeared to reduce the risk of OH. Low concordance between OH and orthostatic symptoms was observed.

Entacapone
Hi I was weaned off Mirapexin due to spending issues and weaned on
Entacapone
. My partner said my mood swings on this were awful. I never felt lime me and felt mad and aggressive as if I wanted to murder someone!! Hence I've stopped it completely. Has anyone else had similar problems??

Comtan (entacapone)
I only take 1/2 of a 25/50 pill at a time but it would be great if I would be able to stretch that out to every 8 hours before symptoms start in again https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/
