Starting PD meds

Hi all,

My Dad is starting PD meds today. This is five years after his diagnosis. His main symptom is tremors.

He is starting out the first week with 100/25mg levocarb once a day at breakfast. The second week is breakfast and lunch. Third week is breakfast, lunch and supper.

He just took his first pill and nervous about the potential side effects. Anyone have any advice for what it is like starting out. I know everyone is different but any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Sharmila
