User Comments about Carbilev
15 Sep 2020 using carbilev for 2 years, lost use of right hand to wright letters, hand shakes to much during day time, at night gives little problems, writing gets smaller speech more difficult, walking slowing down, was hopeful that Carbilev would slow down shaking of hand and give me more control in writing, taking 1 tablets every 8 hrs, also creates urinating problems does anyone knows of Sinemet works better, also checked on Symadyne ! wishful thinking that it will get better but I suppose all of this kind of drugs are sort of the same

18 Aug 2015 Using Carbilev for many years has improved my quality of life but I needed Sinemet 200mg at night so that I could function if I got up during the night. Was on Pexola for several years then did not do so well and came off and started Stelivo. Stelivo was used with Carbilev for about 6 months. Initially it was wonderful then had a lot of weight loss, panic attacks and feeling very cold and exhausted. Came off very slowly. For a year on Carbilev 5 X 25/100 a day and Sinemet 200mg at night time. Last month no Carbilev available and replaced the day time dose with Sinemet. I am not doing well at all. Weak, confused, drowsy, muscle weakness, bladder problems, speech problems etc.
