Any one have any tips on how to deal with nausea ?
I started Sinemet about a month ago suffered with a bit of nausea at first but a dose of domperidone seemed to do the trick , Gp gave me a 10 day supply of domperidone , after the domperidone were finished the nausea came back within a couple of days and now the domperidone are having no effect i am taking one 3 times a day , i have tried taking sinemet before food, after food and with a light meal nothing has helped , i phoned up the parkinson nurse and it was suggested i speak with my gp about possibly taking 2 domperidone 3 times a day and reducing my sinemet to 62.5mg 3 times a day then gradually working back up to my usual dose
I have started taking the 62.5mg and am really feeling the difference between my usual 125mg dose struggling to move and tremors are more prominent
I think i was on them on and off domperidone for about 3 months, when the sinemet increased i found i needed them. I think i was on 2 domperidone (20mg) 3 times daily, i don't get any sickness now. See your GP and hopefully you can increase the domperidone and try get at least 28 days worth.
that is the problem my gp only gives me a box of 30, 1 tablet 3 times a day , i have a appointment with gp tomorrow so hopefully he will let me take 2 tablets 3 times a day , having gone down to a half sinemet tablet i have really noticed a difference in stiffness and aching and tremor more pronounced but i can't stand the constant nausea , so i guess being stiff is for me the lesser of two evils, but thank you for the advice
I don't know if this will help. I was started on Madopar which is supposed to be the same as Sinemet but I felt sick and headachy all the time so I was changed to Sinemet and the nausea and headache went away. Maybe its worth discussing changing over to Madopar with your GP .
My lab dog is 13 yrs old ,having trouble getting around,put her on high strength flexible joint care with.GLUCOSAMINE & CHONDROITIN, she is now like a puppy again,getting round the house fine up & down stairs,ive heard you can get the above in human form tablets does anyone take them for their stiffness ,aches & pains. i know you can get them presribed from gp,but dont know if there clash with pd meds.going to ask my gp in new year, pains,aches & stiffness getting bad now.and its not even that cold yet! just a thought!
well have been to my gp who has given me some cyclizine tablets if there not stopping the sickness in 3 days he is going to speak to the neurologist about changing my drugs , heres hoping they work
