Hi, My Grandfather (82 Year) diagnosed Parkinson's in 2018...only low tremors in hand but now started in both hands and tremors and he can't sleep at night. last year he stated SINEMENT (Carbidopa 25mg/Levodopa250mg) but last 6 month he stopped.....and tremors stated more in both hands....now Doctor prescribed XADAGO 50mg with SINEMENT.my queries are can any one taking this? Can any other alternative medicine available? I appreciate your help and suggestions.

  1. Hello AarnaviSonone,
    I'm sorry to hear that your grandfather is going thru issues with medications. Here is an article that might give you some insight in medications:

    We are not medical professionals so we cannot give you direct advice. If you have further questions we advice you to consult with a professional. If you feel uncomfortable with your grandfather's current neurologist, you can always consult with another one to get a second opinion for medication advice. Please let us know how it goes. We are a supportive community.
