Dear Jeannette,

I haven't seen this one or heard of it before. Does
your local pharmacist know how this manufacturer's products
affect other PWP's in your area.  Perhaps calling your
pharmacist w ould help.

"Generic" Sinemet 25/100 here in Maine is made by the Israeli
manufacturer, TEVA (spelling, anyone?) Translation
from Hebrew, language buffs??


It is circular, not as bright yellow, works very well, more
gentle on my stomach, but is slightly weaker--sometimes
it gets me "almost"" but not quite functional.


Why not try one prescription--if you save 2/3 of the money
you have to spend to get Sinemet CR, it certainly is worth
at least one attempt to see if you do well enough, or even,
better, on the generic CR formula.

Using the TEVA generic is a good way to get through the night-hence the
for me, at least. So currently I am trying Sinemet throughout the day,
Teva at night!

Good luck, Jeannette!

Ivan  :-)

PS Are the Mississippi basin floodwaters rising
near you out in Chicolette?
