I take
Sinemet

Help! - I need sleep
I was wondering whether anyone has had any positive, or otherwise, experience when taking
Sinemet
Plus? I was taking Stalevo 100 4 times a day and Requip XL 8mg once a day but was recently given
Sinemet
Plus 25mg in addition.

Does any know what I should do?
Sinemet
, Azilect, Mirapex and Amantadine. Diagnosis was 5 years ago @ 50y/o. I still work FT. My medication regimen works for a while then it is back to the MD and medications are changed and/or a new one added? MD wanted me to take 2 Mirapex 3x/day. There is no way.

There is hope!
I now take only 1/2 a
sinemet
3 times a day with the mucuna pruriens. So, I now take only 1 1/2
sinemet
all day long!! I am absolutely shocked at how well it works. I continue with 1/2
sinemet
, thinking that the carbidopa might help carry the powder thru the blood brain barrier easier.

When I tried to take Sinemet last month I got very high blood pressure spikes about once a day. Has any one else has experienced this?

suggestions please? anyone?
i had also heard if you take too many doses of
sinemet
in 1 day it could make your symptoms of pd worse, which i feel that way but alot of times unsure if meds or disease itself that make me feel that way.

Drugs for Parkinson's- how do you spell their names?
The most commonly used drugs seem to be Madopar
Sinemet
Mirapexin also known as pramipexole Requip also known as ropinerole Symmetrel also known as amantadine CR after the first two means controlled release There are many other drugs that might be used, and it's confusing

Has anyone else been prescribed Sinemet as a treatment for RLS? If so, do you have any comments on its effectiveness?

Advice welcomed please - swapping from Sinemet slow release 100mg to Stavelo 75mg.
I have been having trouble with "Wear off" whilst taking
Sinemet
slow release and experiencing too much tone in my legs. I had been taking CR every 5 hours. Because I was in so much pain with muscle knots and muscles straining. Plus after scrutinising my medication log notiebook.

Pains in Hip, Knees and Thighs
Background - I have ben taking
Sinemet
Plus for about 6 years, Amantadine for about the same and Azilect for about 4 years Question - As I have seen many references to pains in the hip and knee (like arthritis) and thigh (like you've been overworking them) I wondered if these pains are a side effect

Sinemet and not sleeping........
Sinemet
is great but I am finding that I go a few days with a straight 5hrs sleep - yippee and then I go a few days with sleeping for an hour waking and then ping I am wide awake until 5am or 6am and up at 7am. Hence getting 2 to 3 hrs sleep.

DR B REPLIES....... NEUROLOGISTS OUTCOME
Adding
Sinemet
and Madopar will also worsen this augmentation so should not be taken. Pregabalin is a reasonable drug but you did not state how much you are taking for me to determine if you could take more.

He has suggested I take
Sinemet
(Levadopa) and Madopar. But not sure if they are extra meds with my Mirapexin or on there own. Oh well , just wish I could drink.... Margaret
