That makes two of us who need to know. I had almost continuous asthma in the late 1980's. I am much better and attacks are rare now, partly because it seems there has been a quantum leap in treatment options over the last decade, but also perhaps because I moved to the beach and away from my former environment. My current PD meds are beginning to lose their punch and the next step might be Sinemet. If anyone has knowledge to confirm or deny this Sinemet/ Asthma connection, please respond. Nancy.
