My husband who's currently in hospital has LBD with some Parkinsonian traits and has been on Rivastigmine for several years which saw off his former visual and aural hallucinations. He was seen yesterday by the Parkinson's specialist who is to have him transferred to rehab and has prescribed Sinemet, which contains levodopa and carbidopa, for him.
I read on the medication notes that Sinemet can cause hallucinations and delusions as a side effect and am quite concerned and wonder whether anyone has experience of this drug combination and any advice they might give me.
