What are carbidopa-levodopa tablets (Atamet®, Parcopa™,
Sinemet®)?
CARBIDOPA-LEVODOPA (Atamet®, Parcopa™, Sinemet®) is used to treat Parkinson's
disease. Levodopa (Atamet®, Parcopa™, Sinemet®) can help correct an imbalance of
chemicals in the brain caused by Parkinson's disease. Levodopa (Atamet®, Parcopa™,
Sinemet®)will not cure Parkinson's disease, but will help to control the
symptoms. Carbidopa helps levodopa work better, and this can decrease some side
effects, such as nausea. Generic carbidopa-levodopa (Atamet®, Parcopa™, Sinemet®)
tablets are available. Generic orally-disintegrating tablets are not yet

What should
I watch for while taking carbidopa-levodopa (Atamet®,
Parcopa™, Sinemet®)?
Visit your prescriber (Atamet®, Parcopa™, Sinemet®)or health care professional
for regular checks on your progress. It may be several weeks or months before
you feel the full benefits of carbidopa-levodopa (Atamet®, Parcopa™, Sinemet®).
Continue to take your medicine on a regular schedule and do not stop taking
except on your doctor's advice. Do not take any additional medicines for
Parkinson's disease without first consulting with your health care provider.
You may experience a "wearing off" effect prior to the time for your next dose
of carbidopa-levodopa (Atamet®, Parcopa™, Sinemet®). You may also experience an
"on-off" effect where the medicine apparently stops working for anything from a
minute to several hours, then suddenly starts working again. Tell your doctor or
health care professional if any of these symptoms happen to you, he/she may need
to adjust your dosage.
A high-protein diet can slow or prevent absorption of levodopa (Atamet®, Parcopa™,
Sinemet®). Avoid high protein foods near the time of taking carbidopa-levodopa
to help to prevent these problems. Take carbidopa-levodopa (Atamet®, Parcopa™,
Sinemet®)at least 30 minutes before eating or one hour after meals. You may want
to eat higher protein foods later in the day or in small amounts. Discuss your
diet with your doctor or health care professional or nutritionist.
Do not take iron supplements within 2 hours of taking levodopa (Atamet®, Parcopa™,
Sinemet®). The iron may decrease the amount of levodopa (Atamet®, Parcopa™,
Sinemet®) in your system and decrease the effectiveness of the drug
Do not sit or stand up quickly. This reduces the risk of dizzy or fainting
spells. The dizziness should decrease after taking carbidopa-levodopa (Atamet®,
Parcopa™, Sinemet®) for a couple of days. Alcohol can increase possible
dizziness; avoid alcoholic drinks.
If you are going to have surgery, tell your doctor or health care professional
that you are taking carbidopa-levodopa (Atamet®, Parcopa™, Sinemet®). If
you are diabetic, carbidopa-levodopa (Atamet®, Parcopa™, Sinemet®)may interfere
with the accuracy of some tests for sugar or ketones in the urine (does not
interfere with blood tests). Check with your doctor or health care professional
before changing the dose of your diabetic medicine. Carbidopa-levodopa (Atamet®,
Parcopa™, Sinemet®) may discolor the urine or sweat, making it look darker or
red in color; this is of no cause for concern. However, this may stain clothing
or fabrics.
Where
can I keep my medicine (Atamet®, Parcopa™, Sinemet®)?
Keep out of the reach of children in a container that small children cannot
open. Store at room temperature between 15° and 30°C (59° and 86°F).
Protect from light. Keep container tightly closed. Throw away any unused
medicine after the expiration date.
