Guest guest Posted October 14, 2000 Report Share Posted October 14, 2000 Vera: Too much sinemet can make them slow and weak. Jack was started on a whole one 3 x a day to help his shaking and he did not shake, but he also hardly moved. He seemed out of it some what. Now he is on 1/2 tablet 4 x a day and that helps. If he forgets to take it, I notice him shaking more and remind him what time it is. A little after he takes it he is more steady.
