This is from the patient.co.uk website, a British health information site: Side-effects sometimes occur when you first start levodopa. However, most people have no problems with low doses. Read the leaflet in the medicine packet for a full list of possible side-effects. Feeling sick (nausea) is the most common. This is less likely to occur if you take a small dose at first, and then gradually build it up. If nausea is a problem, then it can usually be eased by an anti-sickness medicine called domperidone <http://www.patient.co.uk/medicine/Domperidone.htm>.
