breathing
Even with
levodopa
therapy the cause of death in such patients is commonly respiratory. Characteristic findings in such patients are a reduction in both maximal static inspiratory and expiratory pressures as well as maximal inspiratory and expiratory flows.

I am new here!
Now I am on carbidopa-
levodopa
10-100 mg. But now since I have RLS so often during the day, I find I have to take up to three of them a day. I am only suppose to take two. It was mentioned in one of the posts I read regarding going to a Neurologist. Should I? tori

Generic Azilect: Side Effect on Carbi/Levodopa?
In the past 2 weeks, the carbi/
levodopa
has been wearing off sooner, and not gradually either. Now, I'm wondering if the name brand Azilect fomulation helped sustain the CD/LD in a way this generic cannot. Anyone else taking CD/LD and the generic rasagilene noticing this?

Prostate Cancer & Hormones - Prolactin
Evolution has given hormones promiscuous roles in the body. A particular hormone may be involved in a number of unrelated functions. Prolactin, as one might guess, is a hormone mostly associated with milk production, but it has various roles in the male body too. In addition, the prostate has prolactin

Quercetin/Bromelain peak tissue absorption time
Even if you just have some experience using q/b along with
levodopa
I'd appreciate any input, especially regarding what seems to have been the best schedule for dosing with q/b throughout your day.

New Parkinson's Drug May Combat Movement Difficulties
New research suggests that people with Parkinson's disease may achieve better and more reliable motor control by taking an experimental drug called opicapone alongside the standard medication
levodopa
. The drug is approved by the European Commission.

Gap or Withdrawal?
Am taking Carbidopa/
Levodopa
100MG. One and One-Half Tablets daily. I take when I awake at 7:30am, 12:30pm and 5:30pm. I wonder about the gap between 5:30pm and 7:30am? 14 hours. Could it account for symptoms such as sleep disturbances?

Meds during DaTSCAN?
No one can seem to tell me if I should be on or off my Carbidopa/
Levodopa
when I do my DaTSCAN later this month. Even my Neurologist can't explain or give a recommendation, he's not sure and states he is to busy to research the answer to this.

copper? ? L-DOPA
I wrote on this forum about two months ago about wearing copper bracelets - one on each arm. I have had no RLS since I have done this and I do not know how to explain it. My daughter who is a pro in natural health medicine bought me a product which she was sure would help me. I have not tried it as

Cognitive Decline - any suggestions?
But last year, he was diagnosed, and has been given Carbidopa/
Levodopa
but it's not really addressing the major issue of, sometimes total, inability to focus and remember. He has a disabled son, so this is a grave situation. I help every way I can, but it's so distressing!
