"Didn't improve any symptoms. Side effects: 1. It was messing up my stomach and starting to cause problems with my acid reflux. 2. I had several episodes of feeling really anxious, and my heart would race – on the verge of a panic attack, maybe? 3. Very slight fear of the dark."

"I just started taking this drug about 3 weeks ago. The first week was a little rough, and it leaves a funny taste in my mouth. However, now that I am getting used to it, I find it helpful. I can take less Carbidopa/Levodopa and have a much smoother transition between the end/beginning of medication times. ONE THING I HAVE FOUND is the importance of staying hydrated. Dehydration is a side effect, and it shows. If I don't watch it, I start feeling bad, and symptoms flare up. After I drink a large glass of water, I start feeling better."

"I take Sinemet 25/100 4 times daily, 1 1/2 tabs, with 100 mg Comtan, 4 times daily, with my Sinemet, and it seems to work well for lessening my 'wear-off' periods, but it does cost a lot."
