My brother who is 62 but not obese and completely fit was recently diagonised as suffering from parkinssons and was given syndopa 110. he is also diabetic. can I start taking syndopa110 safely?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that it is parkinsons especially since your brother has recently been diagnosed with this condition however you should not start the medication unless it has been prescribed to you.
There are other causes of tremor that would need to be ruled out before initiating treatment for parkinsons.
In addition, every medication has potential side effects that may or may not occur. It is best to make sure it is necessary.
I hope this helps
