Ouch...I have nothing like that. My problem is like a dripping faucet.

Comment...Watch for Stalevo side effects. I had to stop Stalevo because of accute abdominal pain, diarrhea and nausea over five months, which went away after stopping the med. You may not have a problem with any of the side effects...we all react differently to our meds...but just wanted to give you a heads up.

"The most common side effects of Stalevo (levodopa, carbidopa, and Comtan) are similar to those with levodopa/carbidopa WITHOUT Comtan and include dyskinesia, nausea, abdominal pain, constipation, dizziness, fatigue and hallucinations. These side effects can be managed by changing the dose of levodopa, carbidopa, and Comtan. Side effects of Comtan (and Stalevo) that are different from levodopa/carbidopa include discoloration of urine and diarrhea. Depending on the severity of the diarrhea Comtan may have to be discontinued. For full prescribing information visit WWW.STALEVO.COM or call 1 866 STALEVO or 1 8666 782 5386"
