Several years ago I think someone posted a similar question. Someone replied that they kept a glass of water or maybe orange juice with dissolved Sinemet by thir bedside and that this would kick in more quickly.

Anyone remember this or am I just imagining? Are there strategies to get Sinemet to act more quickly so you could use it for help getting out of bed?

BTW my wife has visited the urologist and appears to be fine. She had a UTI a few months ago which made the problem worse; that was successfully treated.
