Does taking a higher dose of sinemet help to reduce tremors and will it kick in quicker?

How I reduced my Parkinson’s meds by 50% and beat my addiction to dopamine
Fifteen years ago I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease (PD). Within a year I was taking the standard medication associated with the disease, dopamine in its various forms (levodopa/carbadopa, aka. Sinemet). Like most sufferers of PD, my need for Sinemet, grew and grew until I was taking 200 mg every

Don't keep fixating on dopamine to alleviate your lack of energy.
Dopamine is just one(1) neurotransmitter within your system's complex of neurotransmitters. Unfortunately, many have over exaggerated its importance in treating PD and related energy depletion issues. It isn't that simple. If it were, we would all just dump buckets of dopamine drugs down our mouths and

WHY IS CARBIDOPA USED IN COMBINATION WITH LEVODOPA IN DRUGS SUCH AS SINEMET?
This is a question that I have heard different answers for in different places on the web, but never was quite sure what the exact reason was, but I have noticed that there is a group who believes that Carbidopa itself can be a problem and would prefer alternatives to Carbidopa while some people use

Sinemet, how much is too much?
I'm wondering is there is a scientific guidance or a rule of thumb about how much Sinemet is too much for PWP. I have been very careful about the intake of C/L because of the side effects will come with the long time use of this drug but my panic button was activated when I read a post from a member

I’m new here
Hello, I was diagnosed in 2011, at age 39. I was able to manage my symptoms quite well until about 18 months ago using only an agonist. I started on Sinemet at the beginning of last year, but within 6 months had increased from 3 tablets a day to 9 and started experiencing wear-off in about 2 hours.

Anyone suffered with Sinemet induced dystonia?
I posted a few weeks back that my symptoms were suddenly worse. However I've come to realise that I'm actually suffering dystonia due to taking sinemet. I take just 3 X 100/25mg a day and have been since January. In June I noticed that I had started to feel stiffness in my shoulder and left thigh several

Everyone who diagnosed with Parkinson should read this article!!!
Anyone who diagnosed with Parkinson disease should read this article, and you could find out you probably don't even have Parkinson, but something else and could be wrongly diagnosed by your Neurologist big time! As most Neurologist suspect regards your showing symptoms you have 100% Parkinson and

Can you take sinemet and sertraline (Zoloft) together ?
Can you take them together or do they need to be spaced out. Hubby has been leaving a gap between sinemet and breakfast with his sertraline and vitamins but I’m wondering if he can take the sertraline at the same time as the sinemet to get it into him earlier in the morning. He is struggling with the

High Dose Sinemet
My 97 yr old mum was finally given a diagnosis of atypical Parkinson's after a DAT scan. She's been treated for 8 years. A few months ago she was given Opicapone. I thought it was the answer to my prayers until she started hearing music and finally after 5 weeks hallucinating badly. I titrated her

Cold, sweaty tingly feeling after breakfast
Today after eating his breakfast at 9.45 my husband said he got a cold tingling sweaty feeling and had to lie down. He had his sinemet and uridine an hour or so before so I don’t think it was that. Do you have any idea about what that feeling might be? He thought it seemed like when you get a stomach
