Some people have issues with nausea when taking c/l so it can help to eat something with the pills, as long as it isn't high protein. Fruit, crackers, bread, etc. are okay.
As prescribed 30 min before and 2 hours after meals. Empty stomach never applies to me. I lace this dosage with moderate teaspoons of good creamy peanut butter (prevents nausea, and because it helps me feel good not light headed, or dizzy). Do not $kimp on price of peanut butter becau$e you are worth the richest creamy ta$te. I am confident that most doctors will will say no to peanut dependency.......................................Q
Great question! How you take carbidopa/levodopa can make a real difference in how well it works for you.
For many people, taking it on an empty stomach does help the medication absorb better. A general guideline is:
- Take it at least 30 minutes before a meal
- Or 60 minutes after a meal
Protein is the main thing to watch out Show Full Answer
