Yes it can be a side affect of the meds. I still have an occasional bout with the nausea.

@A MyParkinsonsTeam Member I take Senimet and after I have eaten I have severe nausea & dizziness. I've been taking it since 2017 also, but the symptoms just got worse in the past 3-4 months. That's when my Dr. increased my Levadopa. I also take Ondansetron 4mg, PRN, But it doesn't last more than 1-2 hours so I'm nauseaus most of the day. That along with the dizziness is making me very depressed. I also take Meclizine 25mg with 1/2 mg Xanax for the dizziness. Sometimes it works. I wish you the best.

This drug has very interesting effects for multiple symptoms if Parkinson’s I am currently having. I will check with my neurologist. Thanks.

I have had severe nausea after taking my Rytery occasionally. It happens different times of the day and I could have just eaten or getting ready to eat. The only thing that helps me is 4mg of Ondansetron, PRN, with a limit of 3 a day. I have taken leva dopa /carba-dopa since my dx in 2017. I thought I would eventually go away But it has not😐

I use Rytary and originally was taking 1 carbidopa 25 and was getting nauseous and stomach pain she increased it to 2 carbidopa and pain and nausea stopped. Hope this helps.
