Generic Sinemet
The patents for Sinemet (carbidopa-levodopa) have expired, and generic Sinemet is now available. The FDA has assigned all generic versions of the drug an "AB" rating, meaning they should be equivalent to brand-name Sinemet. However, generic Sinemet may have different inactive ingredients, such as fillers or dyes, from the brand-name medication, which can cause problems for people with allergies or sensitivities.
Generic Sinemet: An Overview
Sinemet® (carbidopa-levodopa) is a prescription medication licensed as a Parkinson's disease treatment. It is also approved to treat Parkinson-like symptoms due to other causes.
Brand-name Sinemet is made by Merck & Co., Inc. and is marketed by Bristol-Myers Squibb Company. However, the patent for the drug has since expired, and generic Sinemet is now available.
Symptoms, Causes and Treatment for Parkinson's
There is no cure for Parkinson's disease. Treatment centers on the administration of medication to relieve symptoms. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) also has approved a surgically-implanted device that lessens tremors. In some severe cases, a surgical procedure may offer the greatest benefit.
Primary Symptoms of Parkinson's
Bradykinesia is slowness in voluntary movement. It produces difficulty initiating movement, as well as difficulty completing movement once it is in progress. The delayed transmission of signals from the brain to the skeletal muscles, due to diminished dopamine, produces bradykinesia. Bradykinesia and rigidity that affects the facial muscles can result in an expressionless, "mask-like" appearance.
Tremors in the hands, fingers, forearm, or foot tend to occur when the limb is at rest, but not when the patient is performing tasks. Tremor may occur in the mouth and chin as well.
Rigidity, or stiff muscles, may produce muscle pain and facial masking. Rigidity tends to increase during movement.
Poor balance is due to the impairment or loss of the reflexes that adjust posture in order to maintain balance. Falls are common in people with Parkinson's disease.
