I get hot like feeling a fever but don't have one, foggy thinking, and a kind of headache, then after a while, they go away. Is there an interaction between my carb/levo? Has this been studied? it's better if I take liquid form. Why would this be?

Parkinsons Devil can cause many things that have not been described by medical; science yet. I find similar interactions as you do.

While the search results don't directly address interactions between pain relievers and carbidopa/levodopa, it's important to note that Parkinson's medications can have various side effects and interactions. Common side effects of carbidopa/levodopa can include:

• Confusion
• Lightheadedness
• Nausea
• Low blood pressure
• Loss of appetite

These symptoms may be amplified when combined with other medications. The liquid form may be better tolerated because it's absorbed differently by your body. It's crucial to discuss these symptoms with your neurologist, as they can help adjust your medication timing or dosage. Your doctor may need to:

• Evaluate your current medication schedule
• Consider if you're experiencing "wearing off" effects
• Assess if you need adjustments to your treatment plan
• Determine if there are any specific interactions with your pain medications

This is especially important since medication effectiveness can change over time with Parkinson's disease.
