Antibiotics and Madopar
Do antibiotics disable the effectiveness of
madopar
? Since i started antibiotics a couple of days ago, I've been shakier, stiffer in neck and more anxious.

Peak doses of levodopa - how extreme are your symptoms?
I also develop dystonia which disappears when the
Madopar
wears off. Things only start to improve after 60 min, but usually after approximately 90 minutes (half life of the
Madopar
). Would be grateful for any comments or suggestions you might have.

Parkinson’s, madopar and heart failure
Just wondered if anyone had similar experiences with
Madopar
especially with low BP. I'm also on Ropinerole 4mg and Rasagiline 1mg. Also I was put on Atorvastatin 20mg two weeks before
Madopar
and wondered if this pain is caused by them and not
Madopar
.

Madopar and HDT times
Can I take HDT (500mg) at exactly the same time with my regular
Madopar
dose (100mg/25mg), without fear of interference which may result in the loss of effectiveness of both or either of them? Also is it relevant if HDT is taken on an empty stomach?

Neupro side effects
Neurologist suggested adding two mg Neupro patches to regime of Zadago plus
Madopar
1.5 three times a day. Diagnosed 7 years ago, first twitch 13 years ago. Only lasted one day as I had nausea, vomiting, headache, cold sweats and sleepiness. Is this normal?

First Post.
My wife was diagnosed with Parkinson's in September 2023 but on seeing a neurologist last week he says she might have msa.She's been on
madopar
since September but it appears to have made very little difference so he's upped the dosage to see if it helps.

Madopar
Hi, I’ve recently started taking
Madopar
. I can’t detect any changes yet, apart from the fact that it seems to make me extremely tired. I just wondered if anyone else has found it effective?

Concentration of levodopa in plasma vs time curves for Madopar 100/25 IR, Madopar 100/25 CR, and Madopar 50/12.5 dispersible
Hello, I have been trying (unsuccessfully) to find the above graphs. In case someone has them, I would be really grateful if they could share the data. A link to a peer-reviewed paper would be best. Thank you in advance. D.

Levodopa only?
I was wondering if there are members of this forum who have been on large doses Levodopa -
Madopar
or Sinemet only - up to 1100 mg per 24h, for 5+ years.I would be grateful if you could comment on your present quality of life, and do you think that things could improve if other medications are added

Parkinson's wife
I have a feeling that the problem with
Madopar
and Sinemet is the decarboxylase inhibitor which blocks vit B6. This vitamin is vital to so may other functions in the body. Anyone else found the same ? Any advice appreciated.

night time pain
My neurologist has prescribed me slow-release
madopar
overnight. This is proving completely ineffective. The only reliable way I can get a decent Sleep is to take codeine ibuprofen painkillers. I do this only a couple of times a week because I don’t want to develop a dependency on them.

madopar vs sinemet
I’m planning to switch from sinemet 125 mg (levodopa carbidopa combination) immediate release to
madopar
Controlled release 125 mg (levodopa benserazide). Based on your experience, do you think it’s safe n is a good idea?
