Cari's asks about late-night Sinemet and Tasmar

Cari asked: [OF WHAT - TASMAR OR SINEMET?] My answer is: All three medications. I just continue with my pattern--each of these three late-night doses includes both Sinemet and SinemetCR partial pills. A half of a Tasmar 100mg is taken either at 9:15 PM, or sometimes later, nearer to 11PM, and again, a half of a Tasmar is taken at 3:45AM. That specific Tasmar dose is taken with a substantial amount of water, and a little bit of juice, because it is VERY dry, and more difficult to swallow when I am not very awake. By the way, I only take Eldepryl (Selegeline Hydrochloride) at 7:00 AM and 9:30 AM, again in half-tablets, because its long half-life of 17 HOURS would keep me awake otherwise. I believe one of its by-products is a methaphetamine or methamphetamine-like molecule.
