Default mucuna

we have 2 acquaintances with PD who take both sinemet and mucuna (zandopa). their reasoning is to keep the dosage of sinemet as low as possible. since sinemet contains carbidopa, they do not worry about the peripheral effects of mucuna. carbidopa can be prescribed as a stand alone drug.
