generic Rytary, Crexont

This combination medication is used to treat symptoms of Parkinson's disease or Parkinson-like symptoms (such as shakiness, stiffness, difficulty moving). Parkinson's disease is thought to be caused by too little of a naturally occurring substance (dopamine) in the brain. Levodopa changes into dopamine in the brain, helping to control movement. Carbidopa prevents the breakdown of levodopa in the bloodstream so more levodopa can enter the brain. Carbidopa can also reduce some of levodopa's side effects such as nausea and vomiting.

Carbidopa-levodopa ER Side Effects

Dizziness, nausea, vomiting, trouble sleeping, unusual dreams, or headache may occur. If any of these effects last or get worse, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly. To reduce the risk of dizziness and lightheadedness, get up slowly when rising from a sitting or lying position. Remember that this medication has been prescribed because your doctor has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects. This medication may cause urine, sweat, or saliva to turn red, brown, or black. This effect is harmless, but your clothes may become stained. Some people taking this medication have fallen asleep suddenly during their usual daily activities (such as talking on the phone, driving). In some cases, sleep occurred without any feelings of drowsiness beforehand. This sleep effect may occur anytime during treatment with this medication even if you have used this medication for a long time. If you experience increased sleepiness or fall asleep during the day, do not drive or take part in other possibly dangerous activities until you have discussed this effect with your doctor. Your risk of this sleep effect is increased by using alcohol or other medications that can make you drowsy. Tell your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects, including: mental/mood changes (such as confusion, agitation, hallucinations), unusual strong urges (such as increased gambling, increased sexual urges), new/worsening movements you can't control/spasms, greatly increased eye blinking/twitching, easy bruising/bleeding, signs of infection (such as sore throat that doesn't go away, fever), unusual tiredness, tingling of the hands/feet, vision changes (such as blurred/double/decreased vision), eye pain, severe stomach/abdominal pain, vomit that looks like coffee grounds, black/tarry stools, problems with urination. Get medical help right away if you have any very serious side effects, including: chest pain, fainting. Suddenly stopping or reducing the dose of this medication may rarely cause a very serious condition called neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS). Get medical help right away if you have any of the following symptoms: fever, unusual muscle stiffness, severe confusion, sweating, fast/irregular heartbeat. A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, get medical help right away if you notice any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing. This is not a complete list of possible side effects. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.

Carbidopa-levodopa ER FAQs
Does carbidopa levodopa come in extended-release?

Yes, carbidopa-levodopa is available in an extended-release formulation. This formulation is designed to release the medication slowly over time to help manage symptoms of Parkinson's disease more consistently.

Carbidopa levodopa is used to treat symptoms of Parkinson's disease and Parkinson-like symptoms, such as tremors, stiffness, and slowness of movement. It helps to improve muscle control and balance.

The effectiveness of Parkinson's medication can vary depending on the individual's specific symptoms and disease progression. Levodopa, often combined with carbidopa, is considered one of the most effective treatments for managing the motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease. However, the "strongest" medication can differ from person to person, and treatment plans are typically tailored to the individual's needs by their healthcare provider.

Signs of too much carbidopa-levodopa can include nausea, vomiting, dizziness, confusion, hallucinations, involuntary movements (dyskinesia), and irregular heart rhythms. If someone experiences these symptoms, it is important to seek medical attention promptly.

Patients with Parkinson's disease who are taking levodopa should avoid vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) in high doses. Vitamin B6 can interfere with the effectiveness of levodopa by increasing its peripheral metabolism, which can reduce the amount of the drug that reaches the brain. However, this interaction is less of a concern when levodopa is combined with a dopa decarboxylase inhibitor, such as carbidopa, which is commonly the case in medications like Sinemet. It is always advisable for patients to consult with their healthcare provider before taking any supplements.
