Lavodopa
UpdatedI have talked to several people who have said that they did not have good results when they were switched from the brand to the generic. I am having trouble with walking. I think maybe I could be having trouble because I am using the generic, Have you seen patients that have had similar complaints? Thanks

Hi, Ginger! Sorry about the problem that you're having.
There are always people that have problems with generics, because there can be fluctuations in the amount of the active ingredient, when switching from the name brand to the generic. It doesn't affect everyone, but some people are sensitive to any change, or it can occur if you were taking the name brand for a very long time.

Have you tried asking your doctor to prescribe it as the brand being medically necessary?
