I have just started the Stalevo and have developed diarrhea. I will continue the usage to see if the diarrhea will quit. If not, I will assume that the drug is causing it. The drug does a much better job of controlling the tremors for a longer period of time.

After about 21 years of being diagnosed with PD and now taking the stalevo drug for about 15yrs., starting with 100mg, & over the time having to increase,- I can still say that with my Drs. help ,I can most of the time control my ups & downs. Thank You for stalevo.
