Sinemet what is normal dose
Been on
Sinemet
since 2017. Started on 25-100 three times a day and added a half dose (12.5-50) around 2019. I told my MDS that off periods, especially before 2nd pill late morning are getting worse. I’m exhausted, clumsy and overall feeling awful.

ADHD and PD
Sinemet
doesn’t affect the ADHD symptoms for me. I’ve been prescribed Ritalin. Does anyone else here have ADHD?

Getting the Most Out of Medications
Bob has been taking
Sinemet
ever since he was diagnosed. He always takes his meds first thing in the morning, then eats his breakfast. He has not been doing very well for some time…. Anyway, the doctor told him NOT to take the
Sinemet
with a protein….

Sinemet and speech?
Hi everyone, maybe one of y’all will have an answer this question.Before I take my
sinemet
I can talk relatively well and people can understand me fairly well but less than half an hour after I take my
sinemet
I have great difficulty, no matter how much or little I take.

Has anyone taken Paxlovid and PD Meds?
I may have been exposed to COVID and can’t find anything specific about interactions between Paxlovid and Carbidopa/levodopa (
sinemet
). I’m not sure I will take it even if I do come down with COVID, but I’m trying to be proactive.

Rytary in Canada?
I went to see my neurologist today to discuss the possibility of switching from
sinemet
to Rytary, as well as from Amentadine to Gocovri. Sadly I’ve been told that neither Rytary nor Gocovri are available in Canada, since they have not been approved by Health Canada.

Mucuna
I’m also on
sinemet
3 to 4 times a day. It seems to just be giving me more shakes. I also saw that another company, Banyan, has this product in both tablets and extract liquid. Has anyone tried any of these? Any recommendations?

Avoid medication - and suffer!
Then, I faded out the Pramipexole, reducing by 0.26mg every 10 days until down to NIL and added
Sinemet
ER 25/100 once a day and
Sinemet
25/250 tds. I was due a neuro appointment this week, but he has vanished until November.

Timings of medications
I am on
sinemet
100/25 tds, selegiline, zinc, vit d, vit b1, coq 10, SAME, resveratrol, mucuna, magnesium n pramipexole of which I take mg n pramipexole at night. I don’t take mucuna every day but for the rest, is there any ideal time? Like dopamine should be taken empty stomach before meals..

Could I be addicted to Sinemet?
Am I the only one who thinks they are addicted to
Sinemet
? 13 years since diagnosis, am I still clutching at straws?

Rytary vs sinemet
I switched from 25/100
sinemet
four-five times to Rytary 36.25/145 three times a day. I am experiencing increased dyskinesia on Rytary. I was expecting it to decrease. Anyone else have this issue?

Tapering down Levodopa any advice ?
I’m trying to wean off
Sinemet
(total dose per day 75/300) slowly and completely after taking it for 4 months (since diagnosis). I’ve had more intense non- motor symptoms (e.g. depression exhaustion) trying to come off than before I started the meds.

Levodopa storage
Apparently Madopar should not be stored above 26 deg c, (79f),
Sinemet
- some sources say keep below 25c. As the needle now edges 30 c in the UK, and anytime on holiday in the Mediterranean or Caribbean, not easy without AC. Does it matter? Can it be put in the fridge? Anyone know?

Zandopa fast-taper safer than Sinemet?
Zandopa taper-easier than
sinemet
? A recent post discussed tapering
sinemet
and it’s risks. Anyone have any insight on tapering Zandopa as the primary treatment? Is it lower risk of withdrawal/NMS with quick taper? Thanks

Titrating down on Sinemet experience
I was originally prescribed 25/100 3 tablets per day (
sinemet
) 2 years ago. RH tremor was my only major symptom at that time. After 2 months of nausea, my body got used to the drug and my tremor disappeared.
