Sinemet after Stalevo side effects
when my husband was first diagnosed in 2012 he was started in Sinemet he did not have any side effects that I remember, about 3 years later he was changed to
Stalevo
as it acted longer. In the past 2 weeks or so he changed back to Sinemet because the
Stalevo
has gotten so expensive.

taking meds every 2 hrs around the clock. 24/7
I take
stalevo
every 2 hrs all day and night. I only sleep in short intervals, my body instantly goes into a full hard tremor at exactly 2 hrs all day and night long. I am exhausted. I have been fighting PD for 22 years. Ready to die.

Parkinson's late stage meds
I take
stalevo
every 4 hrs 6x daily. It is gone in only 2 hrs. and I am left paralyzed, with a hard tremoring. I can't breath, I can't move, very weak, so I just lay on my bed for 2 hrs. until next dose. I need to take something in between or every 2 hrs, so I don't keep hitting rock bottom.

Low protein diet plan for PD meds
My neurologist is so funny, he said,"drink plenty of water when you take
stalevo
, but don't drink too much water as to flush through to soon." ?????? And when I asked about protein, he said, eat your protein at night? All 61 gm, I take meds every 2 hrs. very hard to schedule eating in between.

Difference between "on" and "off" time for me
My medication schedule is
Stalevo
50/200/200mg five times a day every three hours starting at 6am. There is no way I can go three hours in between doses, more like 11/2 hours. Then of course trying to eat makes it harder. This is extreme but it's the only way I feel good anymore.

How much has you PD progressed?
I am 37 years old and on
Stalevo
100mg x 5 a day and Rasalagine 1mg a day.... Atm i get 1/2 hrs on time and 2/3 hrs off time where I seriously can't function and am practically chair/bedbound until 30/1hr after taking my tab... This seriously can't be right? Can Pd progress so quickly?

Nausea
My main medications are 4
Stalevo
250mg each day, along with Sifrol 2.25g for the restless legs. For the last few weeks I have experienced intermittent quite profound nausea. How did I tell if this is PD related, a side effect of medication or something quite unrelated.

Can you function when "off"?
I take my meds (Dispersable Madopar 62.5mg/Rasalagine 1mg at 6am)(
Stalevo
100mg) at 6am, 10am, 2pm, 6pm and 10pm... They normally kick in after 30 mins then wear off after 2 hrs so I have an hour and half "off" time before I can take my next med.

How fast does PD progress?
I take 4 x
Stalevo
per day at 4 hour intervals and if needed I can add 2 x Dispersable Madopar when I feel a slow down... The medication helps when I take it although it can take 15/1hr to get in my system and lasts 2 1/2 to 3 hrs... Is that normal?

Shaking all over - and not Elvis
I have been on medication for nearly 12 months, I am currently on 4 tabs a day of
Stalevo
200 and have been for most of this year. When it is wearing off after about 4 -5 hours I get shaky, sometimes more than others. Is this PD or am I addicted to
Stalevo
and hanging out for the next hit?

CBD?
I am on
Stalevo
100mg 4x a day doesn't always work but when it does there's a huge improvement of motor skills... I read that Parkinson's meds don't help if it's cbd/psp? Thanks for any replies.
