My meds have changed slightly. Last week I visited my neurologist, who increased my Sinemet dosage to 4 pills a day instead of 3. Everything else is the same.
I hope I’m recording the dosage amounts from the bottle labels correctly – sometimes it’s not clear what the numbers mean:
- Ropinirole, 0.5 mg – 3 tabs 3 x day
- Azilect, 1 mg – 1 tab in the morning
- Sinemet (carbidopa-levodopa), 25-100 mg – 1 tab 4 x day
- Nortriptyline, 50 mg – 1 tab at night
- Simvastatin, 20 mg – 1 tab at night
- Clonazepam, 1 mg – 1 tab at night
- Androgel 1.62%, 20.25 mg per pump – 4 pumps every morning
I also take these OTC items:
- Aspirin, 325 mg – 1 tab
- Multivitamin with Minerals
- D3-2000 IU
- CoQ10, 100 mg
- Saw Palmetto, 450 mg
- Acetyl L-Carnitine, 400 mg
I list these here on my blog so others can know what I’m taking. Also, whenever I see a new doctor or PD researcher, I get asked what meds I’m on. So I’ll open this page on my iPhone and hand it over.
thanks for posting these. do you really get by on just four rounds of sinemet? when does it wear off?
