Maximum dose of levodopa
Can someone tell me the maximum dose of levodopa/madopar per ingestion? And what is the maximum dose of levodopa from mucuna? Or doesn't that make a difference?

Natural history of motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease and the long-duration response to levodopa
The natural pattern of progression of Parkinson’s disease is largely unknown because patients are conventionally followed on treatment. As Parkinson’s disease progresses, the true magnitude of the long-duration response to levodopa remains unknown, because it can only be estimated indirectly in treated

Carbodopa Levadopa is it more poison than medicine?
I am the 71 year old husband and care partner for my wife of 49 years. She will be 71 next Tuesday and that marks the 1 year time mark on her Parkinsons journey. We were in New Mexico prior to her diagnosis and she walked with me everywhere on our quest to see the sites. Now, she has the severe Parkinsons

I've a question for this wonderful community. Does anyone have an idea of what happends to the levodopa not absorbed in the small intestine? will it be absorbed later in the rest of the intestine (probably slower and less)? Or it will be metabolised (tranformed) by the microbiota in other (useless or

Mucuna my natural protocol
Repost for those who might be interested. My mucuna protocol! What you eat and when you eat is critical in the effectiveness of mucuna! I was on Carbidopa levodopa 25 100 for about 6 months and I weaned off completely in about a week. I just did it on my own because I was anxious to get started with

Are cineva experienta cu pompa de duodopa?
As vrea sa montez sotului meu o pompa de levodopa de fapt si nu stiu daca ar imbunatati calitatea vietii .Acum perioadele de ON intr-o zi sunt intre 2-3 ore.Imi poate spune cineva cum a decurs montarea sondei , cum se adapteaza cu partea externa a tubului, e un disconfort major, nu este risc de infectie

Medicine/Supplement Regime (Mucuna etc)
I just thought I'd share my dad's current medicine regime in case it will help other people. After so many months of trial and error, we have finally found a dose that works for my dad. He takes it every 2 hours and 45 minutes with little freezing, has less dyskinesias, not much pain, a better appetite

Protein and levodopa absorption
Suspect food protein is interfering with levodopa absorption. Which strategies do you use? I can get terrible hunger pangs by 4am, which combined with RLS makes further sleep impossible. Is a banana or milk with cereal at one hour after Sinemet or two hours before effective?

Weird things prior to diagnosis that were early clues of PD
Many of us likely went to the doctor when we first noticed that finger that wiggled everytime we stopped moving our hand. Just one finger at first, then two, then the thumb joined in on the dance. After many tests and examinations, we were diagnosed with PD. Looking back, I can think of several early

Questions about MSA
I'm new to this forum and live in British Columbia, Canada where there is really no support right now. I was diagnosed 2 years ago with dystonia (oral facial) that is responsive to L-dopa but it's much more than dystonia. I wrote a list for my appt. with the dystonia clinic...when? I won't even guess

Switching from Carbidopa Levidopa to Mannitol
So you have to wean off of C/L to start Mannitol? What dose do you start with? Which brand of Mannitol is best? Someone said Walmart carries it. Would it be better to order it else where?
