Re: Off Day/Sinamet-deteriorate


A few years back I noticed a couple of  my Sinemet tablets had turned gray in
color.
(they had been in my coat pocket -. unwrapped, mind you!)
Called the pharmaceutical house (whichever it was back then)
 was told that the levodopa deteriorates and loses its potency when
exposed to heat, light, and air.
(I recall the PDR cautioned  "Do not expose...... keep in dark air-tight
 container" or something to that effect.
