I have been taking stavelo for the last 2 months and I have had a strange side effect. Has anyone else experienced this? This medication has really helped smooth out the transition between doses of levodopa. I've noticed a definite difference with a shorter leave the time I'm off waiting for the levadopa to kick in. However, I wake up every morning very stiff joints and often suffer from greater muscle pain and stiffness. Is this a common side effect?
