I was diagnosed with Parkinson's 3 months ago. Initially I was placed on carbidopa levodopa (25/100). After a few days I noticed improvement in my strength, dexterity, tremors, energy. After 1 month azilect was added. I didn't notice any real change in my condition after this addition. I'm very pleased with the results.

High fat foods prevent stomach from emptying and the drug from getting into blood stream. High protein prevents drug from getting to brain. Most effective when dosage is tweaked for individual. Many people are under dosed and it is also a problem to overdose on it and become "manic". Most effective for most at two hour intervals which is a real pain. There is a continuous release formulation but it can build up as the day goes by so you may have to reduce the dosage if you use it. The advantage is you don't have to take it as often. There is not enough help from doctors in getting the dose optimized. Go to Parkinson's forums and talk to people, then ask your neurologist about adjusting. If this doesn't work you either don't have Parkinson's or you are under dosed or your food is causing problems.
