I'm currently taking l-dopa for cervical dystonia. I got so sick also when I first started taking it. I bought a pill cutter and cut it up into quarters and took 4 times a day until could get full dose of 3 tablets daily built up. I increased by a quarter when my system could handle more. It took a little time, but I am now on my full dose. I did do this with my Dr's approval. I do get sick if I miss a dose by longer than a hour so I have set alarms on my phone to remind me of my next dose.

Wishing you the best.
