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

Sinemet CR (carbidopa/ levodopa): 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.

carbidopa/levodopa: All it took was one dose and I could walk normally. Minimal side effects after 5 years on it.

carbidopa/levodopa: After many medications and several diagnosis, just after once day since I was put on this medication I feel like part of my life is regained.

Sinemet CR (carbidopa/ levodopa): I started Sinemet 25/100mg and within 2 hrs my tremor stopped. I still get some but not as bad as before. My walking also improved.
