Food/drinks to avoid

Hi

I’m wondering if there are any foods or drinks that I need to avoid as I’m taking the co-careldopa (1st day) I see that protein can cause the meds not to absorb properly, so I’ve been avoiding that today. Is there anything else that’s good or bad to have in my diet?

Hi Hannah, yes there is science to tell you what you should and shouldn’t eat when taking your medication. However everyone is different and unless you are getting no benefits from your medication stick to what you’re used to and don’t overthink it. All the best

I was told to take the medication half an hour before or 1 hour after a meal containing protein which works for me.
