A member asked:
What happens if i take sinamet in high doses & have parkinsons?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hopefully will help: Are you really 33, as you would be quite young for parkinson's. Sinemet (carbidopa and levodopa) is the main "go to" drug, and could very will be required in higher doses if your problem is progressing. Usually works quite well with limited adverse effects. Discuss fully with your neurologist.
