(1) Anyone have the experience in taking comtan & levodopa together?
     I take comtan 100mg & levodopa(sinemet) 50mg after each meal.
     There are two statements about above doses :
     (a) the comtan may enhance the levodopa dose from 50mg to
          75mg(enhance 50% entering the brain).
     (b) the comtan,as the inhibitor role, may extend the levodopa active
          state 25%,ex. from 2hrs to 2.5hrs.

     I not assure which one is correct ? or,both correct ?

(2) What is the purpose about Selegiline ?  What is it good to PD
      patient ?

Ting.
