Hi Peg,
Yes, I know Stavelo contains levodopa. I take 3 to 4 Stavelo 12.5carbidopa/50mg levodopa and 200mg entacapone. So the total levodopa I am taking per day is 150 to 200mg. The toxin has a very long half life, so it will probably build up in your system.

Rick, How do you know Requip gives you more dyskinesia than levodopa? When you are taking 1200mg levodopa per day, you will always have it in your system. You would have to clear your system for a day or 2 then take only Requip to see if it gave you dyskinesia. To complicate matters, as I mentioned, the toxin which I suspect is causing dyskinesia, builds up in your system, and would take some time to clear.
