Hi, I am on 4 per day. The one thing that I have found is that timing is incredibly important. When I take my meds, if I am off even for a short time things go downhill pretty quickly,

Hi Les, as you can see everyone's answer is different. The doses & strengths are adjusted for each persons needs at the time. The best person to ask really is your doctor. 😊

I take 1.5 tablets every 2 hrs. It took me awhile to find a dose that works for me. Sometimes I wake up in the night (about 3am) and I am so Shakey. so stiff can barely walk to the bathroom I go ahead and take two more at that time just helps tremendously for me. Hang in there . I am referring to the carbidopa levodopa.

Real quick before throwing me out. I’m on Rytary ER which is the same C/Lev but released slowly. My MDS has me on 3 caps 5 hrs apart 4 times a day. 12 caps daily but I think can be increased. Don’t know for sure. Bye

My husband takes three 25-100mg three times a day and a 5-200mg extended release at night. Most of his symptoms are not motor related and he takes a lot of pills to keep his BP up and multiple pills for R.E.M. sleep behavior issues.
