Experiencing nausea while taking Sinemet (Levodopa/Carbidopa) is a common side effect. Here are some suggestions:

- Consult Your Doctor: It's important to inform your doctor about the nausea, especially since it has been persistent for a month.
- Dietary Adjustments: Eating a diet high in protein or fat can interfere with Sinemet's absorption. Try to balance your diet and avoid large amounts of these nutrients.
- Medication Timing: Ensure you are taking Sinemet exactly as prescribed by your doctor.
- Gradual Dosage Changes: If you need to stop taking Sinemet, do so gradually under your doctor's guidance to avoid withdrawal symptoms.

If the nausea worsens or is accompanied by other severe symptoms, seek medical advice immediately.
