Here is a link with a copy of the insert:

Zoom in on the very end of it and you will see that Caraco and Orion are the same company (subsidiaries)

This link discusses it..

It appears that Orion (parent company) provides the ingredients to Caraco so no FDA action is warranted.
You should be able to ask you pharmacist which brand they carry. There are not many generics yet.

Type in Carbidopa into the search here at FDA and the listing will come up for Stalevo --it is the first in the long list of products:
