I've been taking Stalevo 150 5x day for a month to deal with the wearing off. Tremor and pain are gone but I am experiencing hallucinations and confusions.

I have taken Stalevo 150 for four years now. I had to increase the dosage from 3X daily to 5X daily. I was in constant pain and stiffness,since increasing dosage, I feel much pain free and more mobile. Hope I can keep taking this dosage.

WIthout Stalevo, muscle rigidity is severe; with it I have a reasonable window of normalcy that is tenuous at best and unpredictable in its duration of efficacy. Q4h is an annoying schedule, but tolerable.

I was diagnosed in 2004, at the age of 55.But had the tremors for 10 years prior to that. Stalevo helps my body to be less ridget and I have less down time.
