I just read a post I had gotten to from a link in another past and can’t find it now
It mentioned Chinese medicine and the premise that too much
levodopa
could be toxic. Is anyone familiar with this link?

Citicoline: "patients treated with citicoline experienced a significant worsening 45 days after the medication was discontinued". Updated.
I was not taking very much
levodopa
to begin with so reducing
levodopa
was not very important to me.

Posting bitmaps
Hi, does anyone know how to post and add bitmap images (some
Levodopa
charts I'd like some feedback on)? I get the following messages each time (for .png and .jpg extensions) "There was a problem uploading your image. Make sure your image ends with .jpg, .jpeg or .png."

Effect stacking
Hello everyone, understanding my difficulties that I write in the diary, I came across the term "stacking effects" on the forum, which is mentioned in the dosage and understanding of the effect of
levodopa
. What is 'effect stacking' and how to recognize it. Thank you.

Nicht nur Nachts im Bett
Seit ein paar Monaten wirkt die 1 ganze Tablette nicht mehr für die ganze Nacht, daher nehme ich zusätzlich noch eine
Levodopa
. Die Symptome kommen jetzt Tagsüber auch beim längeren Autofahren und längerem sitzen.

L-Dopa side effects - psychosis
I consulted several neurologists, all say
Levodopa
is the medication with the fewest side effects and nothing else is possible..We already reduced the dose without success.

Parkinson- insomnia & increase in sexual urge
My doctor has not yet started
levodopa
saying its effective for only 4-5 year so will give only when symptoms worsened. One symptom/ side effect which I have not read anywhere is the increase in urge for having sex, not sure if anyone else has experienced it.

How Much Carbidopa Levodopa After 5-10 Years? Any other meds?
I don't want "
Levodopa
phobia" to lead to bad decisions, but I'm also afraid of dyskinesia and other long-term effects of increased medication.

Peak doses of levodopa - how extreme are your symptoms?
In 35 min the
levodopa
concentration in blood reaches peak level and the above-described events become unbearable. I also develop dystonia which disappears when the Madopar wears off.
