Meds not working after starting taking at bedtime
My
sinemet
worked fine for quite a while but I was having trouble sleeping due to stiffness so I began to take
sinemet
CR 200/50 at bedtime. Once I started doing this my meds during the day dropped off. They used to work for 4-5 hours each dose but now they only work for 2 hours each dose.

Does anyone else find sinemet makes them sleepy? My hubby's neurologist says it is a very unusual symptom...
We just had a very deflating appointment with a specialist and even though I insisted that off
sinemet
that hubby is not sleepy, he said maybe it was narcolepsy.

Work and Stress
And I imagine that I have at least 5, maybe 10 years of “honeymoon” with the
Sinemet
. But, by all your posts, I am learning that the stress alone might be quite damaging and accelerate the progression.

Zandopa
For instance I am currently taking
Sinemet
100/25, 1 tablet 4 x per day. Should I continue with the
Sinemet
as well for the time being? I would be grateful for some informed insight into the use of this medication. Apologies in advance for delays in responding to your posts.

Sinemet not working
Allergic to
Sinemet
or mirapex after 10 years. Well, maybe allergic is wrong word. I feel worse after taking it. Thanks

Opicapone
Has anyone tried opicapone with
Sinemet
cr. I have been told you can't take them together. As I take
Sinemet
cr through the day but it's not lasting very long now only about hour and a half and I wanted a way to extend it.

Please read all post carefully.
I only take
Sinemet
(3 25/100 and 1 50/200 every 4 hours 24/7) and Gabapentin 600 mg a day. I believe exactly the opposite. Here are a dozen studies on just one supplement - vitamin D, posted a few hours ago by easilly, as just one, of hundreds, of examples.

Newbie Question
Ended up at a neurologist who prescribed an increasing dose of generic
Sinemet
starting with a 1/2 pill (25/100) once a day and increasing a half pill a day to eventually 2 pills 4x day. He's still not at full strength (I believe yesterday he did 1.5 pills 4x).

Tapering Sinemet
I have been taking
Sinemet
in a very low dosage of 6/25-25 for the last 2 months for the first time to help my dystonia but it didn’t work much so I am tapering it off to stop taking it completely in the next few days. Please share your thoughts about stopping
Sinemet
here.

Another newbie
He put me on
sinemet
, and it helped my resting tremor. I'm currently on
sinemet
25/100 4 x daily. I've been getting along pretty well, but recently, I'm really having trouble focusing, staying on task and my cognitive skills have really diminished.
