Marling,  I am not a physician and I dont even play one on TV so be
forewarned about this suggestion ... .  When I need to be "on" for public
meetings and presentations I take -- for cosmetic purposes -- a levsin
tablet under the tongue. The generic substitute for Levsin is Hyoscyamine
Subl Tabs.  It works for me from time to time and does not interfere with
y regular dosage of Sinemet.  Check it out with your physician/pharmacist.
