The cabo part of the. Med is the part that is supposed to help with nausea. When I started the c/l it made me so dizzy I couldn't walk. The Dr changed to the XL and that worked. There are meds that help with nausea that comes from meds. I forgot about that part about the nausea part. Every now and then I get at little bit of nausea and don't know why. I forgot about the protein part 2. It has slowed down the shaking.
I take my C/L 25/100 3x’s a day and eat a piece of toast or a few crackers before taking and wait 45 min to to eat protein based foods. I helps with nausea for me. Just remember to not eat Protein based foods within 45 min before or at least 1 hour after taking meds. It takes some planning but once you get in the groove of it! Contact your Neurologist if you are really having problems with it. Good luck.
might also result from taking your meds before eating something
