Hi,

Syndopa plus contains levodopa and carbidopa which is used to treat the symptoms of Parkinson's disease and Parkinson's like symptoms which are associated with some other diseases. These may include shakiness, stiffness and slowsiness of movement.

Syndopa plus side effects are nausea, vomiting, neuroleptic malignant syndrome, panic attacks, altered behaviour, altered sleep, mood changes, burning sensation of tongue, confusion, abnormality of voluntary movement, dizziness, fainting, headache, fever, allergic reactions etc. Patients receiving long term Syndopa plus therapy may contend with some adverse effects like fluctuations, dyskinesias, toxicity, loss of its efficacy, disabilities etc.

Take care. Hope I have answered your questions. Let me know if I can assist you further.
