Can anyone comment on how Uprima compares to Sinemet or Madopar to increase dopamine, either for sexual arousal, or to cause movement in PWP's? Is the vomiting and nausea caused by high-dose apomorphine (Uprima) the same as that caused by l-dopa in the absence of carbidopa? Is there an addiction problem with Uprima (apomorphine)?
