My personal experience with CR and S100 is that they quite different in response times and duration .In my opinion they are not going to give the same response. I think that some neuros believe that  CR is newer and a direct replacement for S100.

 

I take both of them but by itself CR gives me almost no response, it is like background music and it only helps to smooth the peaks and valleys of S100

I take S100 every 2 1/2 hours 3 times a day and CR twice a day 5 hours apart.

You might want to check the web site for SInemet .

I also had the DBS and was able to cut my meds by 40% and increase the interval from 1,5 hours to 2,5

Subject: Sinemet

A question about Sinemet.  The doctor gave me a prescription for

50/200CR four times a day.  If I use up the remainder of my Sinemet

25/100CR two pills to equal the 50/200 C. R will that have the same effect? it may seem like a dumb question but I have a lot of 25/100CR left.  Thanks for any information.
