Sinemet (carbidopa/ levodopa) for Parkinson's Disease: Overall was an effective drug for me, but had problems with it wearing off between doses.

Sinemet CR (carbidopa/ levodopa) for Parkinson's Disease: I was placed on Sinemet CR (1 x 4 times daily) as a result of Sinemet "wearing off". I am a carer for my wife who is extremely disabled, thus I needed a medication which allowed me to still manage her needs whilst controlling my Parkinson's. CR has worked and although I have episodes of trembling as I get nearer the end of an 6 hour medication cycle I am very happy with it as I am able to tend to my wife's medical needs and carry out cooking duties as required.
