Each capsule strength may be used alone, or in combination with other capsule strengths as required. Use of 
this medicinal product with other levodopa containing medicinal products has not been studied. 
 
Dose recommendations should be followed at initiation of treatment and adapted according to clinical 
response. 
 
Initial dose and titration in levodopa-naïve patients  
 
The starting dose is one capsule containing 95 mg of levodopa and 23.75 mg carbidopa three times daily 
(TID) for the first three days; this may be increased to a dose of one modified-release hard capsule 
containing 145 mg of levodopa and 36.25 mg carbidopa three times daily from Day 4 of treatment.  
 
Further increases should be individualized based on clinical response.  The daily dose must be determined by 
careful titration. Patients should be maintained on the lowest dose required to achieve symptomatic control 
and to minimize adverse reactions such as dyskinesia and nausea.   
 
There is limited experience with a total daily dose of more than 1,170 mg of levodopa when administered in 
levodopa-naïve patients.  
 
Converting patients from other levodopa/ dopa-decarboxylase (DDC) inhibitor (carbidopa or benserazide) 
immediate release medicinal products to Numient  
 
As a result of Numient’s pharmacokinetic characteristics, the doses and dosing frequency of Numient are not 
directly interchangeable with those of other levodopa/DDC inhibitor immediate release medicinal products 
(see section 5.2). 
 
When patients are initially converted from immediate release levodopa/DDC inhibitor medicinal products to 
Numient, the dosing conversion guidelines provided in Table 1 are recommended for initial dosing.

When converting patients from levodopa/DDC inhibitor medicinal products to Numient, the dose should be 
adjusted to maintain sufficient symptomatic control. The dosing frequency may be changed from three times 
a day to a maximum of five times a day if sufficient symptomatic control is not observed. In studies in 
advanced Parkinson’s disease patients, there is limited data using doses above 2,450 mg of levodopa and 
612.5 mg of carbidopa given as Numient. 
 
The final total daily dose of levodopa from Numient is about double that of the final total daily dose of 
levodopa from immediate release tablets while the final total daily dose of levodopa from Numient is about 
three times that of the final total daily dose of levodopa from the combination of levodopa/DDC 
inhibitor/entacapone. 
 
Converting patients specifically from other levodopa/DDC inhibitor modified-release medicinal products to 
Numient 
 
For patients currently treated with other levodopa/DDC inhibitor modified-release medicinal products, 
limited information regarding conversion to Numient is available. The initial total daily dose of Numient 
described in Table 1 above may need to be decreased by approximately 30% for patients converting 
specifically from levodopa/DDC inhibitor modified-release medicinal products to Numient. 
 
Maintenance 
 
Because Parkinson's disease is progressive, periodic clinical evaluations are recommended. Therapy should 
be individualized and adjusted for each patient according to the desired therapeutic response. 
 
Addition of other medicinal products for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease 
 
Modified-release levodopa/carbidopa may be used together with other medicinal products for the treatment 
of Parkinson’s disease. However, dose adjustments may be required (see section 4.5). 
 
Interruption of therapy  
 
Sporadic cases of a symptom complex resembling neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) have been 
associated with dose reductions and withdrawal of levodopa/carbidopa containing medicinal products. 
Patients should be observed carefully if abrupt reduction or discontinuation of the modified-release 
levodopa/carbidopa capsule medicinal product is required, especially if the patient is receiving antipsychotics 
(see section 4.4). 
 
If general anaesthesia is required, the modified-release levodopa/carbidopa capsule medicinal product may 
be continued as long as the patient is permitted to take oral medicinal products. If therapy is interrupted 
temporarily, the usual dose should be administered as soon as the patient is able to take oral medicinal 
products.

Elderly 
 
No dose adjustment of the modified-release levodopa/carbidopa medicinal product is required for elderly 
patients. 
 
Renal impairment 
 
Impact of renal function on levodopa/carbidopa clearance is limited (see section 5.2). Numient has not been 
studied in patients with renal impairment. It is recommended to administer this medicinal product cautiously 
to patients with severe renal disease (see section 4.4). 
 
Hepatic impairment 
 
Numient has not been studied in patients with hepatic impairment. It is recommended to administer this 
medicinal product cautiously to patients with severe hepatic impairment (see section 4.4). 
 
Paediatric population 
 
The safety and efficacy of Numient in children under 18 years of age have not been established. No data are 
available. 
 
Method of administration 
 
Numient should be administered with a glass of water and can be taken with or without food. A high-fat, 
high-calorie meal delays the absorption of levodopa by two hours. Further, high protein meals may impair 
clinical response by decreasing the absorption of levodopa (see section 4.5). Therefore, Numient should not 
be taken at the same time as high protein meals. The modified-release hard capsule should be swallowed 
whole, and not chewed or crushed, in order to maintain the modified-release effect of the levodopa/carbidopa 
medicinal product. Alternatively, for patients that have difficulty swallowing a capsule, this medicinal 
product may be administered by carefully opening the capsule and sprinkling the entire contents on a small 
amount (e.g., 2 tablespoons) of soft food such as apple sauce, yoghurt, or pudding. The medicinal 
product/food mixture should be swallowed completely and immediately without chewing and should not be 
stored for future use. It cannot be excluded that heating may change the properties of the medicinal product. 
Therefore, the medicinal product should not be heated or added to hot food. 
 
Products containing ferrous sulphate should be administered separately from levodopa/carbidopa, with the 
longest possible time interval between administrations (see section 4.5). 
 
4.3 Contraindications 
 
- Hypersensitivity to the active substances or to any of the excipients listed in section 6.1. 
 
- Narrow-angle glaucoma. 
 
- Phaeochromocytoma.  
 
- Co-administration with non-selective monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors. These inhibitors must be 

discontinued at least two weeks prior to initiating therapy (see section 4.5).  
 
- A previous history of neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) and/or non-traumatic rhabdomyolysis.

4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use 
 
CNS effects and mental disturbances 
 
Somnolence and episodes of sudden sleep onset 
Levodopa has been associated with somnolence and episodes of sudden sleep onset (see section 4.7). Sudden 
onset of sleep during daily activities, in some cases without awareness or warning signs, has been reported 
very rarely. Patients must be informed of this and advised to exercise caution while driving or operating 
machines during treatment (see section 4.7). Patients who have experienced somnolence and/or an episode of 
sudden sleep onset must refrain from driving or operating machines. Furthermore a reduction of dose or 
termination of therapy may be considered. 
 
Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) 
Sporadic cases of a symptom complex resembling NMS have been reported in association with dose 
reductions or withdrawal of levodopa/carbidopa medicinal products. NMS is a life-threatening syndrome 
characterized by fever or hyperthermia and can be associated with rhabdomyolysis. Neurological findings, 
including muscle rigidity, involuntary movements, altered consciousness, mental status changes; other 
disturbances, such as autonomic dysfunction, tachycardia, tachypnoea, sweating, hyper- or hypotension; 
laboratory findings, such as creatine phosphokinase elevation, leucocytosis, myoglobinuria, and increased 
serum myoglobin have been reported. Therefore, patients must be monitored carefully when the dose of 
levodopa/carbidopa is reduced abruptly or discontinued, especially if the patient is receiving antipsychotics 
(see section 4.2). 
 
Mental disturbances 
Patients may experience new or worsening mental status and behavioural changes, which may be severe, 
including psychotic-like and suicidal behaviour during levodopa treatment or after starting or increasing the 
dose of levodopa. This abnormal thinking and behaviour can consist of one or more of a variety of 
manifestations including anxiety, depression, paranoid ideation, delusions, hallucinations, confusion, 
psychotic-like behaviour, disorientation, aggressive behaviour, agitation, and delirium.  
 
Patients with a major psychotic disorder or a history of psychotic disorder must be treated cautiously with 
levodopa/carbidopa because of the risk of exacerbating psychosis. In addition, certain medicinal products 
used to treat psychosis may exacerbate the symptoms of Parkinson's disease and may decrease the 
effectiveness of levodopa/carbidopa. Concomitant use of antipsychotics should be monitored carefully for 
worsening of Parkinson’s motor symptoms especially when D2-receptor antagonists are used (see section 
4.5). 
 
Impulse control disorders  
Patients should be regularly monitored for the development of impulse control disorders. Patients and carers 
should be made aware that behavioural symptoms of impulse control disorders including pathological 
gambling, increased libido, hypersexuality, compulsive spending or buying, binge eating and compulsive 
eating, and dopamine dysregulation syndrome can occur in patients treated with dopamine agonists and/or 
other dopaminergic treatments containing levodopa. Review of treatment is recommended if such symptoms 
develop. 
 
Dyskinesias 
Medicinal products containing levodopa cause dyskinesias that may require treatment adjustment. Carbidopa 
permits more levodopa to reach the brain and more dopamine to be formed increasing the risk for certain 
adverse CNS reactions including dyskinesia. It is recommended to monitor patients for the onset or evolution 
of dyskinesia and to adjust levodopa/carbidopa doses accordingly. 
 
Orthostatic hypotension 
Levodopa/carbidopa can cause orthostatic hypotension. Levodopa/carbidopa should be used with caution in 
case of concomitant use of medicinal products that may cause orthostatic hypotension, e.g. anti-hypertensive 
medicinal products.

Glaucoma 
 
Patients with chronic wide-angle glaucoma may be treated cautiously with levodopa/carbidopa provided the 
intraocular pressure is well-controlled and the patient is monitored carefully for changes in intraocular 
pressure during therapy. 
 
Melanoma 
 
Epidemiological studies have shown that patients with Parkinson’s disease have a higher risk (2- to 
approximately 6-fold higher) of developing melanoma than the general population. Whether the increased 
risk observed was due to Parkinson’s disease or other factors, such as medicinal products used to treat 
Parkinson’s disease, is unclear.  
 
For the reasons stated above, patients and prescribing physicians are advised to monitor for melanomas 
frequently and on a regular basis when using levodopa/carbidopa, especially in patients with suspicious, 
undiagnosed skin lesions or a history of melanoma. Periodic skin examinations performed by appropriately 
qualified individuals (e.g., dermatologists) are recommended.  
 
Laboratory testing 
 
Decreased haemoglobin and haematocrit have been observed on long-term levodopa/carbidopa treatment. 
Periodic evaluation of hepatic, haematopoietic, cardiovascular and renal function is recommended during 
extended therapy. 
 
Levodopa/carbidopa preparations may provide a false-positive test result for ketone bodies, if a test strip is 
used for determining any ketonuria. This reaction does not change upon boiling the urine sample. False 
negative results might be obtained upon application of glucose-oxidase methods for glucosuria. 
 
Special populations  
 
Levodopa/carbidopa should be administered cautiously to patients with ischemic heart disease, severe 
cardiovascular or pulmonary disease, bronchial asthma, renal, hepatic or endocrine disease, or history of 
peptic ulcer disease (because of the possibility of upper gastro-intestinal haemorrhage) and a history of 
convulsions.  
 
Care should be exercised in administering levodopa/carbidopa to patients with a history of myocardial 
infarction who have residual atrial, nodal, or ventricular arrhythmias.  In such patients, cardiac function 
should be monitored with particular care during the period of initial dose adjustment. 
 
4.5 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction 
 
Monoamine oxidase inhibitors 
 
Non-selective monoamine oxidase inhibitors must be discontinued at least 2 weeks prior to treatment 
initiation with the modified-release levodopa/carbidopa capsule medicinal product (see section 4.3).  
Numient can be taken concomitantly with the recommended dose of an MAO inhibitor, which is selective for 
MAO inhibitor type B such as selegiline and rasagiline. There is a recognized drug-drug interaction of 
levodopa with type B MAO inhibitors which potentiates the effects of levodopa. The combination may be 
associated with severe orthostatic hypotension. 
 
The dose of levodopa may need to be reduced when an MAO inhibitor selective for type B is added. Patients 
should be maintained on the lowest dose required to achieve symptomatic control and to minimize adverse 
reactions.

Dopamine D2 receptor antagonists, benzodiazepines and isoniazid 
 
Dopamine D2 receptor antagonists (e.g., phenothiazines, butyrophenones, risperidone), benzodiazepines and 
isoniazid may reduce the therapeutic effects of levodopa. Patients taking these medicinal products together 
with levodopa/carbidopa should be monitored carefully for loss of therapeutic response. 
 
Tricyclic antidepressants 
 
There have been rare reports of adverse reactions, including hypertension and dyskinesia, resulting from the 
concomitant use of tricyclic antidepressants and levodopa/carbidopa. 
 
Antihypertensives 
 
Symptomatic postural hypotension has occurred when combinations of levodopa and a decarboxylase 
inhibitor are added to the treatment of patients already receiving certain antihypertensives. Dose adjustment 
of the antihypertensive medicinal products may be required during the titration phase of treatment with this 
modified-release levodopa/carbidopa medicinal product. 
 
Anticholinergics 
 
Anticholinergic medicinal products can work synergistically with levodopa, in order to improve tremor. 
Concurrent use can, however, cause a worsening of involuntary motor disorders. Anticholinergic medicinal 
products may impair the effect of levodopa, due to a delayed absorption. A dose adjustment of levodopa may 
be required. 
 
Phenytoin and papaverine 
 
There have been rare reports that the beneficial effects of levodopa in Parkinson's disease are reversed by 
phenytoin and papaverine. Patients taking these medicinal products with levodopa/carbidopa should be 
carefully monitored for loss of therapeutic response. 
 
COMT inhibitors 
 
The effect of co-administration of this modified-release levodopa/carbidopa capsule product and COMT 
inhibitors such as entacapone has not been studied. The addition of entacapone to levodopa/carbidopa has 
been demonstrated to increase the levodopa bioavailability by 30%. The dose of the modified-release 
levodopa/carbidopa capsule medicinal product may need to be decreased with concomitant use of COMT 
inhibitors. 
 
Ferrous salts 
 
Levodopa/carbidopa and ferrous salts or multivitamins containing ferrous salts should be co-administered 
with caution. Ferrous salts can form chelates with levodopa and carbidopa. Products containing ferrous 
sulphate and levodopa/carbidopa should be administered separately with the longest possible time interval 
between administrations (see section 4.2). 
 
Alcohol interaction 
 
In vivo, co-administration of Numient with up to 40% volume-to-volume (v/v) alcohol did not result in dose-
dumping of levodopa or carbidopa.

Food interaction 
 
In healthy adults, oral administration of Numient after a high-fat, high-calorie meal reduced levodopa Cmax 
21% while the overall extent of absorption of levodopa (AUCinf) was similar (13% increase) to that observed 
in the fasted state (see section 5.2). Administration with a high-fat, high-calorie meal delays levodopa 
absorption by up to 2 hours (see section 4.2). 
 
Following administration of the modified-release hard capsule contents sprinkled over a small quantity (e.g., 
2 tablespoons) of soft food such as apple sauce, yoghurt, or pudding, the rate and extent of absorption of 
levodopa was similar to that observed in the fasted state. 
 
Levodopa competes with certain amino acids for transport, therefore high protein meals may impair the 
absorption of levodopa. 
 
Effect of levodopa and carbidopa on the metabolism of other medicinal products 
 
Inhibition or induction effects of levodopa and carbidopa have not been investigated.  
 
4.6 Fertility, pregnancy and lactation 
 
Pregnancy 
 
There are no or limited amount of data from the use of levodopa/carbidopa in pregnant women. Studies in 
animals have shown reproductive toxicity (see section 5.3). Numient is not recommended during pregnancy 
and in women of childbearing potential not using contraception, unless the benefits for the mother outweigh 
the possible risks to the foetus. 
 
Breast-feeding 
 
Carbidopa is excreted in rat milk, but it is not known whether carbidopa or its metabolites are excreted in 
human breast milk. In a study of one breastfeeding mother with Parkinson’s disease, excretion of levodopa in 
human milk was reported. There is insufficient information on the effects of levodopa/carbidopa or their 
metabolites in newborns/infants. Breast-feeding should be discontinued during treatment with Numient. 
 
Fertility 
 
There are no data on the effects of levodopa or carbidopa on human fertility. Effects of levodopa on fertility 
were evaluated in mouse studies (see section 5.3). 
 
4.7 Effects on ability to drive and use machines 
 
Levodopa may have a major influence on the ability to drive and use machines. Certain side effects such as 
sleepiness and dizziness that have been reported with this modified-release levodopa/carbidopa capsule 
medicinal product may affect some patients' ability to drive or operate machinery.  
 
Patients being treated with this modified-release levodopa/carbidopa capsule medicinal product and 
presenting with somnolence and/or sudden sleep episodes must be informed to refrain from driving or 
engaging in activities where impaired alertness may put themselves or others at risk of serious injury or death 
(e.g. operating machines), until such recurrent episodes and somnolence have resolved (see also section 4.4).

4.8 Undesirable effects 
 
Summary of the safety profile 
 
The most frequently reported adverse reactions with Numient were nausea, occurring in approximately 12% 
of all patients; dizziness, headache, and dyskinesia, each occurring in approximately 8% of all patients; and 
insomnia, occurring in approximately 6% of all patients. Serious events of gastrointestinal haemorrhage 
(uncommon) and of allergic oedema (uncommon) were reported in the clinical studies with Numient. A 
symptom complex resembling neuroleptic malignant syndrome and rhabdomyolysis may occur with 
levodopa/carbidopa medicinal products, although no cases have been identified in clinical studies with 
Numient.  
 
Tabulated list of adverse reactions 
 
Adverse reactions are listed below by system organ class (SOC) and frequency (Table 3). Frequencies are 
defined as: very common (≥1/10); common (≥1/100 to <1/10); uncommon (≥1/1,000 to <1/100); rare (≥
1/10,000 to <1/1,000), very rare (<1/10,000), not known (cannot be estimated from the available data). 
Within each frequency category, the adverse reactions are presented in order of decreasing seriousness.

b) Combined term that includes atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, atrioventricular block, bundle branch block, sick sinus syndrome, bradycardia, and 

tachycardia 
 
Description of selected adverse reactions 
 
Sudden sleep onset 
Numient is associated with somnolence and has been associated very rarely with excessive daytime 
somnolence and sudden sleep onset episodes. 
 
Impulse control disorders  
Pathological gambling, increased libido, hypersexuality, compulsive spending or buying, binge eating and 
compulsive eating can occur in patients treated with dopamine agonists and/or other dopaminergic treatments 
containing levodopa (see section 4.4). 
 
Laboratory values  
Cases of falsely diagnosed phaeochromocytoma in patients on levodopa/carbidopa therapy have been 
reported very rarely.  Caution should be exercised when interpreting the plasma and urine levels of 
catecholamines and their metabolites in patients on levodopa or levodopa/carbidopa therapy. 
 
Reporting of suspected adverse reactions 
 
Reporting suspected adverse reactions after authorisation of the medicinal product is important. It allows 
continued monitoring of the benefit/risk balance of the medicinal product. Healthcare professionals are asked 
to report any suspected adverse reactions via the national reporting system listed in Appendix V.

4.9 Overdose 
 
Symptoms and signs 
 
The acute symptoms of levodopa/DDC inhibitor overdose can be expected to arise from dopaminergic 
overstimulation. Doses of a few grams may result in CNS disturbances, with an increasing likelihood of 
cardiovascular disturbance (e.g. hypotension, sinus tachycardia) and more severe psychiatric problems at 
higher doses. Levodopa overdose may give rise to systemic complications, secondary to dopaminergic 
overstimulation. 
 
Treatment 
 
Management of acute overdose with levodopa/DDC preparations is the same as management of acute 
overdose with levodopa. Pyridoxine is not effective in reversing the actions of this combination medicinal 
product. Electrocardiographic monitoring should be instituted and the patient should be observed carefully 
for the development of arrhythmias; if required, give appropriate antiarrhythmic therapy. Further 
management should be as clinically indicated or as recommended by the national poisons centre, where 
available. 
 
 
5. PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES 
 
5.1  Pharmacodynamic properties 
 
Pharmacotherapeutic group: Anti-Parkinson drugs, dopaminergic agents, ATC code: N04BA02 
 
Mechanism of action 
 
Levodopa is a precursor of dopamine, and is given as dopamine replacement therapy in Parkinson's disease.  
 
Carbidopa is a peripheral aromatic amino acid decarboxylase inhibitor. It prevents metabolism of levodopa 
to dopamine in the peripheral circulation, ensuring that a higher proportion of the dose reaches the brain, 
where dopamine exerts its therapeutic effects. A lower dose of levodopa can be used when it is co-
administered with carbidopa, reducing the incidence and severity of peripheral side effects. 
 
Pharmacodynamic effects 
 
When levodopa is administered orally, it is rapidly decarboxylated to dopamine in extracerebral tissues so 
that only a small portion of a given dose is transported unchanged to the central nervous system. For this 
reason, large doses of levodopa are required for adequate therapeutic effect and these may often be 
accompanied by nausea and other adverse reactions, some of which are attributable to dopamine formed in 
extracerebral tissues. 
 
Carbidopa inhibits decarboxylation of peripheral levodopa. It does not cross the blood-brain barrier and does 
not affect the metabolism of levodopa within the central nervous system. Since its decarboxylase inhibiting 
activity is limited to extracerebral tissues, administration of carbidopa with levodopa makes more levodopa 
available for delivery to the brain. The addition of carbidopa to levodopa reduces the peripheral effects 
(nausea, vomiting) due to decarboxylation of levodopa; however, carbidopa does not decrease the adverse 
reactions due to the central effects of levodopa.

Clinical efficacy and safety 
 
Levodopa-naïve patients with Parkinson’s disease 
APEX-PD 
The effectiveness of Numient in patients with early Parkinson’s disease was established in a randomized, 
double-blind, placebo-controlled, fixed-dose, parallel-group, 30-week clinical trial in 381 patients who had a 
median disease duration of 1 year and limited or no prior exposure to levodopa and dopamine agonists. 
Patients continued on stable concomitant anti-Parkinson medicinal product. Eligible patients were 
randomized (1:1:1:1) to placebo or one of three fixed levodopa/carbidopa doses of 145 mg/36.25 mg, 
245 mg/61.25 mg, or 390 mg/97.5 mg, three times a day. Patients were not allowed to receive supplemental 
levodopa or catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT) inhibitors. Patients receiving the modified-release 
levodopa/carbidopa medicinal product initiated treatment at 95 mg levodopa/23.75 mg carbidopa three times 
daily (TID). The dose was increased starting on Day 4 and the highest target dose (390 mg levodopa/97.5 mg 
carbidopa TID) was achieved by Day 22. 
 
The primary efficacy endpoint was the mean change from baseline of the Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating 
Scale (UPDRS) Part II (activities of daily living) score plus Part III motor score at week 30 or early 
termination. Each of the three modified-release levodopa/carbidopa treatments was statistically significantly 
superior to placebo on the primary measure (Table 4).

Patients with advanced Parkinson’s disease 
The efficacy and safety of Numient in patients with advanced stage Parkinson’s disease have been evaluated 
in 2 double-blind, active-controlled studies: parallel study ADVANCE-PD (study IPX066-B09-02; 22 
weeks) and cross-over study ASCEND-PD (study IPX066-B-09-06 Part 1; 11 weeks). 
 
In both studies the primary endpoint was the percentage “off” time during waking hours. The main 
secondary endpoints included “off” time, “on” time without troublesome dyskinesia, and UPDRS Parts II+III 
score. In the ADVANCE-PD study, the Clinical Global Impression of Change was also assessed. 
 
ADVANCE-PD 
The ADVANCE-PD study was a 22-week study consisting of a 3-week dose adjustment of pre-study 
immediate release levodopa/carbidopa treatment prior to a 6-week conversion to Numient. Next, patients 
were randomized to a double-blind, 13-week study treatment period of either optimized immediate release 
levodopa/carbidopa treatment or Numient. A total of 471 included patients had been maintained on a stable 
regimen of at least 400 mg per day of levodopa prior to entry into the trial. Dosing of concomitant anti-
Parkinson medicinal products was kept stable. Patients were not allowed to receive supplemental 
levodopa/carbidopa or catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT) inhibitor medicinal products during the trial. 
A total of 393 patients (mean age 63.2 years; 65% male patients) were randomized.

ASCEND-PD 
The ASCEND-PD study was a randomized, double-blind, 2-treatment, 2-period crossover study in which 
110 patients on a stable regimen of levodopa/carbidopa/entacapone (LCE) containing at least 400 mg per day 
of levodopa were included. Minimum dosing frequency was four times per day for at least 4 weeks upon 
entry into the trial. Concomitant anti-Parkinson medicinal products were kept stable during the study. LCE 
treatment was converted into Numient over a 6-week period. Following this dose conversion, 91 study 
patients (mean age: 64.1 years; 75% male patients) were randomized to receive Numient followed by pre-
study LCE or vice versa. All efficacy data is based on 84 patients who completed the study with the 
exception of patient diary data which is based on 83. Each double-blind study period lasted 2 weeks.  In 
between these periods, all patients received open-label Numient treatment for 1 week. 
 
The most frequently recorded concomitant medicinal products for Parkinson’s disease in randomized 
patients were dopamine agonists (64%), and MAO inhibitors (37%).

Paediatric population 
 
The European Medicines Agency has waived the obligation to submit the results of studies with Numient in 
all subsets of the paediatric population in the treatment of idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (see section 4.2 for 
information on paediatric use). 
 
5.2 Pharmacokinetic properties 
 
Absorption 
 
Levodopa 
The pharmacokinetics of Numient were evaluated following single doses in healthy subjects and following 
single and multiple doses in patients with Parkinson’s disease. The single dose pharmacokinetics in healthy 
adults following oral administration of 2 Numient 195 mg levodopa/48.75 mg carbidopa capsules is 
presented in Figure 1.  
 
Figure 1: Mean concentration-time profiles of levodopa plasma concentrations in 22 adults following a 
single oral dose of 2 Numient 195 mg levodopa/48.75 mg carbidopa capsules 
 

 
 
 
The bioavailability of levodopa from Numient in patients was approximately 70% relative to immediate 
release levodopa/carbidopa. For comparable doses, Numient results in a levodopa peak concentration (Cmax) 
that is 30% that of immediate-release levodopa/carbidopa. Following an initial peak at about one hour, 
plasma concentrations are maintained for about 4 to 5 hours before declining. Peak plasma concentrations 
are reached at about 4.5 hours. In patients with Parkinson’s disease, multiple-dose pharmacokinetics was 
comparable to single-dose pharmacokinetics, i.e. there was a minimal accumulation of levodopa from the 
modified-release levodopa/carbidopa medicinal product. 
 
Following multiple dosing in patients, modified-release levodopa/carbidopa had reduced fluctuations in 
levodopa plasma concentrations with peak-to-trough fluctuation index of 1.5 with minimal accumulation of 
levodopa. 
 
Carbidopa 
Following oral dosing of the modified-release levodopa/carbidopa medicinal product the maximum 
concentration occurred at approximately 3.5 hours. The bioavailability of carbidopa from this medicinal 
product relative to immediate release levodopa and carbidopa tablets was approximately 50%.

Food effect 
 
In healthy adults, oral administration of the modified-release levodopa/carbidopa medicinal product after a 
high-fat, high-calorie meal reduced levodopa Cmax by 21%. The extent of absorption of levodopa (AUCinf) 
was similar (13% increase) to that observed in the fasted state. Administration with a high-fat, high-calorie 
meal delays levodopa absorption by up to 2 hours. 
 
Following administration of the modified-release hard capsule contents sprinkled over a small quantity of 
soft food such as apple sauce, the rate and extent of absorption of levodopa was similar to that observed in 
the fasted state. 
 
Levodopa competes with certain amino acids for transport, therefore high protein meals may impair the 
absorption of levodopa.  
 
Distribution 
 
Levodopa 
Levodopa is bound to plasma protein only to a small extent (10-30%). Levodopa crosses the blood-brain 
barrier by active transporters for large neutral amino acids.  
 
Carbidopa 
Carbidopa is approximately 36% bound to plasma proteins. Carbidopa does not cross the blood-brain barrier 
at clinically relevant doses.  
 
Biotransformation 
 
Levodopa 
Levodopa is extensively metabolized to various metabolites. The two major metabolic pathways are 
decarboxylation by dopa decarboxylase (DDC) and O-methylation by catechol-O-methyltransferase 
(COMT). Unchanged levodopa accounts for less than 10% of the total urinary excretion. The terminal phase 
elimination half-life of levodopa, the active moiety of antiparkinsonian activity, is approximately 2 hours in 
the presence of carbidopa. 
 
Carbidopa 
Carbidopa is metabolized to two main metabolites: α-methyl-3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylpropionic acid and 
α-methyl-3, 4-dihydroxy-phenylpropionic acid. These two metabolites are primarily eliminated in the urine 
unchanged or as glucuronide. Unchanged carbidopa accounts for 30% of the total urinary excretion. The 
terminal phase elimination half-life of carbidopa is approximately 2 hours. 
 
Dose linearity 
 
Numient shows dose proportional pharmacokinetics for both carbidopa and levodopa over the levodopa dose 
strength range of 95 mg to 245 mg. 
 
Renal impairment 
 
Renal excretion of intact levodopa accounts for only about 10% of clearance. Thus, impaired renal function 
may potentially have a small effect on the exposure of levodopa. Modified-release levodopa/carbidopa 
should be administered cautiously to patients with severe renal impairment (see section 4.2).   
 
Hepatic impairment 
 
There are no studies on the pharmacokinetics of levodopa and carbidopa in patients with hepatic impairment 
(see section 4.2). Modified-release levodopa/carbidopa should be administered cautiously to patients with 
severe hepatic impairment.

Paediatric population 
 
There are no studies on the pharmacokinetics of levodopa and carbidopa when administered as Numient in 
children. 
 
Elderly  
 
In the pharmacokinetic studies conducted in patients following a single dose of Numient, systemic exposure 
to levodopa generally increased with increasing age with AUC values being, on average, approximately 15% 
higher in elderly (≥65 years) than younger subjects (<65 years). 
 
Gender 
 
Levodopa 
Following a single dose of Numient in patients with Parkinson’s disease the plasma AUC and Cmax of 
levodopa was higher in females than males (on average, 37% for AUC and 35% for Cmax). These differences 
are primarily explained by the lower body weight in females. 
 
5.3 Preclinical safety data 
 
Non-clinical data reveal no special hazard for humans based on conventional studies of safety pharmacology, 
repeated dose toxicity, genotoxicity, and carcinogenic potential.  
 
Reproductive toxicology 
 
Both levodopa and combinations of carbidopa and levodopa have caused visceral and skeletal malformations 
in rabbits. 
 
No effects were seen on male or female reproductive organs in repeat dose toxicology studies in mice, rats or 
monkeys with levodopa alone, or in combination with carbidopa. However, levodopa has been shown to 
mildly affect mating behaviour in male rats.

Read all of this leaflet carefully before you start taking this medicine because it contains important 
information for you. 
- Keep this leaflet. You may need to read it again.  
- If you have any further questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist. 
- This medicine has been prescribed for you only. Do not pass it on to others. It may harm them, even if 

their signs of illness are the same as yours.  
- If you get any side effects, talk to your doctor or pharmacist. This includes any possible side effects 

not listed in this leaflet. See section 4.

1. What Numient is and what it is used for  
2. What you need to know before you take Numient

4. Possible side effects  
5. How to store Numient 
6. Contents of the pack and other information 
 
 
1. What Numient is and what it is used for 
 
Numient contains two different medicines called levodopa and carbidopa in one hard capsule.  
- levodopa turns into a material called ‘dopamine’ in your brain. The dopamine helps to improve the 

symptoms of your Parkinson’s disease.  
- carbidopa belongs to a group of medicines called ‘aromatic amino acid decarboxylase inhibitors’. It 

helps levodopa work more effectively by slowing the speed at which levodopa is broken down in your 
body.  
 

Numient is used to improve the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease in adults. 
 
 
2. What you need to know before you take Numient  
 
Do not take Numient: 
 
- if you are allergic to levodopa or carbidopa, or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in 

section 6); 
- if you have narrow-angle glaucoma (an eye disorder); 
- if you have phaeochromocytoma (a rare tumour of the adrenal gland); 
- if you are taking certain medicines for treating depression [non-selective monoamine oxidase (MAO) 

inhibitors]. You need to stop using these medicines at least two weeks before you start Numient (see 
also under ‘Other medicines and Numient’); 

- if you have ever had neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS –a rare severe reaction to medicines used 
to treat severe mental disorders); 

- if you have ever had non-traumatic rhabdomyolysis (a rare muscle disorder).

Warnings and precautions  
 
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Numient if you have, have ever had, or develop: 
- sudden sleep attacks or sometimes feel very sleepy  
- any form of severe mental disorder like psychosis 
- feelings of depression, suicidal thoughts, or notice unusual changes in your behaviour 
- tremors, agitation, confusion, fever, rapid pulse, or wide fluctuations in your blood pressure, or notice 

that your muscles get very rigid or jerk violently. If any of this happens, contact your doctor 
immediately 

- an eye condition called chronic wide angle glaucoma, because your dose may need to be adjusted and 
the pressure in your eyes may need to be monitored 

- melanoma or suspicious skin lesion 
- a heart attack, heart beat problems, circulation or breathing problems  
- kidney or liver problems  
- an ulcer in your gut (called ‘duodenal’ or ‘peptic ulcer’)  
- an endocrine (hormone) disease 
- bronchial asthma 
- obsessive behaviour(s)  
- convulsions 
- low blood pressure or feeling dizzy when getting up 
- new or increased abnormal body movements (dyskinesias)  
 
If you are not sure if any of the above applies to you, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking 
Numient.  
 
If you must undergo surgery, please tell your doctor that you are using Numient. 
 
Impulse control disorders 
Tell your doctor if you or your family/carer notices you are developing urges or cravings to behave in ways 
that are unusual for you or you cannot resist the impulse, drive or temptation to carry out certain activities 
that could harm yourself or others. These behaviours are called impulse control disorders and can include 
addictive gambling, excessive eating or spending, an abnormally high sex drive or an increase in sexual 
thoughts or feelings. Your doctor may need to review your treatments. 
 
Tests 
You may need to have testing of your heart, liver, kidney, and blood cell functions during long-term 
treatment with medicines containing levodopa/carbidopa. If you need to have tests on your blood or urine, 
tell the doctor or nurse that you are taking Numient. This is because the medicine may affect the results of 
some tests. 
 
Children and adolescents 
 
The use of Numient is not recommended in patients under 18 years of age. The safety and efficacy of 
Numient in patients under 18 years of age have not been studied 
 
Other medicines and Numient 
 
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines. This 
is because other medicines can affect the way Numient works.  
 
Do not take Numient if you have taken a medicine called a ‘non-selective monoamine oxidase (MAO) 
inhibitor’ for treating depression in the last 14 days. These medicines include isocarboxazid and phenelzine. 
If this applies to you, do not take Numient and ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice.

In particular, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking the following medicines:  
- Other medicines for Parkinson’s disease, such as ‘anticholinergics’ (e.g. orphenadrine and 

trihexyphenidyl), ‘selective MAO-B inhibitors’ (e.g. selegiline and rasagiline), and a ‘COMT 
inhibitor’ (e.g. entacapone) 

- Ferrous sulphate (used to treat anaemia caused by low levels of iron in the blood). 
Levodopa/carbidopa may make it harder for your body to use iron. Therefore, do not take Numient 
and iron supplements or multivitamin supplements containing iron at the same time. After taking one 
of them, wait at least 2 to 3 hours before taking the other 

- Phenothiazines - such as chlorpromazine, promazine and prochloroperazine (used to treat mental 
illness) 

- Benzodiazepines such as alprazolam, diazepam, and lorazepam used to treat anxiety 
- Tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs; used to treat depression) 
- Papaverine (used to improve blood flow around the body) 
- Treatment for high blood pressure (hypertension) 
- Phenytoin which is used to treat fits (convulsions) 
- Isoniazid which is used to treat tuberculosis  
- Dopamine antagonists used to treat mental disorders, nausea, and vomiting 
 
 
Numient with food and drink  
 
A high-fat, high-calorie meal delays the absorption of levodopa by two hours. If your diet contains too much 
protein (meat, eggs, milk, cheese), Numient may not work as well as it should. Avoid taking your capsules at 
the same time that you consume a high fat or high protein meal. 
 
Pregnancy, breast-feeding, and fertility  
 
If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your 
doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking Numient. 
 
Numient is not recommended during pregnancy and in women of childbearing potential not using 
contraception. However, your doctor may decide to give you Numient if the expected benefits of treatment 
outweigh possible risks to the unborn child.   
 
Women should not breast-feed during treatment with Numient. 
 
Driving and using machines 
 
Numient can cause somnolence (excessive drowsiness) and sudden sleep onset episodes. Therefore, you 
must refrain from driving or engaging in activities where impaired alertness may put yourself or others at 
risk of serious injury or death (e.g. operating machines) until such recurrent episodes and somnolence have 
resolved.  
 
 
3. How to take Numient  
 
- Always take this medicine exactly as your doctor or pharmacist has told you. Check with your doctor 

or pharmacist if you are not sure 
- Your doctor will tell you exactly how many capsules of Numient to take each day 
- If you have never had levodopa before, the usual starting dose for Numient is one 95 mg capsule three 

times a day for three days. Depending on how you respond to treatment your doctor may then 
increase your dose on day four 

- If you have had levodopa before, your doctor will determine the appropriate starting dose regimen 
based on your current levodopa dose 

- Numient should be taken approximately every 6 hours no more than 5 times a day 
- Take this medicine by mouth with a glass of water. You must swallow your capsules whole. Do not 

break, crush or chew the capsules

- Alternatively, if you have difficulty swallowing a capsule, this medicine may be administered by 
carefully opening the capsule and sprinkling the entire contents on a small amount (e.g., 
2 tablespoons) of soft food such as apple sauce, yoghurt, or pudding. Do not heat the medicine/food 
mixture and do not sprinkle the contents of the capsule on hot food. Swallow the medicine/food 
mixture completely and immediately without chewing and do not store for future use 

- Take the capsules at regular time intervals according to your doctor's instructions 
- Do not change the times at which you take your capsules or take any other medicines for Parkinson's 

disease without first consulting your doctor. You should not take Numient capsules at intervals of less 
than 4 hours apart 

- Numient can be taken with or without food. Avoid taking your capsules with a high fat meal or one 
high in protein since this will delay the time it takes for the medicine to work. 

- Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you think the effect of Numient is too strong or too weak, or if 
you experience possible side effects 

- Depending on how you respond to treatment your doctor may then either increase or decrease your 
dose and adjust your dosing frequency 

 
If you take more Numient than you should 
 
If you take more Numient than you should (or someone has accidentally ingested Numient) talk to your 
doctor or pharmacist immediately. In case of an overdose, you may feel confused or agitated, and your heart 
rate may be slower or faster than normal. 
 
If you forget to take a dose of Numient  
 
Take it as soon as you remember unless it is nearly time to take the next dose. Do not take a double dose to 
make up for a forgotten dose. Take the remaining doses at the correct time. 
 
If you stop taking Numient  
 
Do not stop taking or change your dose of Numient without talking to your doctor first even if you feel 
better. 
 
Do not stop taking Numient suddenly  
 
This can cause muscle problems, fever and mental changes. 
 
If you have any further questions on the use of this medicine, ask your doctor or pharmacist. 
 
 
4. Possible side effects 
 
Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them. 
 
If you have any of the following symptoms during your treatment with Numient, contact your doctor 
immediately: 
 
- Bleeding in your stomach or intestines which may be seen as blood in your faeces or darkened faeces 
- An allergic reaction, the signs of which may include hives (nettle rash), itching, rash, swelling of your 

face, lips, tongue or throat. This may cause difficulties in breathing or swallowing 
- Your muscles get very rigid or jerk violently, you get tremors, agitation, confusion, fever, rapid pulse, 

or wide fluctuations in your blood pressure. These can be symptoms of neuroleptic malignant 
syndrome (NMS, a rare severe reaction to medicines used to treat disorders of the central nervous 
system) or rhabdomyolisis (a rare severe muscle disorder)

{'Title': '2. what you need to know before you take numient', 'Section_Content': "do not take numient: - if you are allergic to levodopa or carbidopa, or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6); - if you have narrow-angle glaucoma (an eye disorder); - if you have phaeochromocytoma (a rare tumour of the adrenal gland); - if you are taking certain medicines for treating depression [non-selective monoamine oxidase (mao) inhibitors]. you need to stop using these medicines at least two weeks before you start numient (see also under 'other medicines and numient'); - if you have ever had neuroleptic malignant syndrome (nms a rare severe reaction to medicines used to treat severe mental disorders); - if you have ever had non-traumatic rhabdomyolysis (a rare muscle disorder). warnings and precautions talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking numient if you have, have ever had, or develop: - sudden sleep attacks or sometimes feel very sleepy - any form of severe mental disorder like psychosis - feelings of depression, suicidal thoughts, or notice unusual changes in your behaviour - tremors, agitation, confusion, fever, rapid pulse, or wide fluctuations in your blood pressure, or notice that your muscles get very rigid or jerk violently. if any of this happens, contact your doctor immediately - an eye condition called chronic wide angle glaucoma, because your dose may need to be adjusted and the pressure in your eyes may need to be monitored - melanoma or suspicious skin lesion - a heart attack, heart beat problems, circulation or breathing problems - kidney or liver problems - an ulcer in your gut (called 'duodenal' or 'peptic ulcer') - an endocrine (hormone) disease - bronchial asthma - obsessive behaviour(s) - convulsions - low blood pressure or feeling dizzy when getting up - new or increased abnormal body movements (dyskinesias) if you are not sure if any of the above applies to you, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking numient. if you must undergo surgery, please tell your doctor that you are using numient. impulse control disorders tell your doctor if you or your family/carer notices you are developing urges or cravings to behave in ways that are unusual for you or you cannot resist the impulse, drive or temptation to carry out certain activities that could harm yourself or others. these behaviours are called impulse control disorders and can include addictive gambling, excessive eating or spending, an abnormally high sex drive or an increase in sexual thoughts or feelings. your doctor may need to review your treatments. tests you may need to have testing of your heart, liver, kidney, and blood cell functions during long-term treatment with medicines containing levodopa/carbidopa. if you need to have tests on your blood or urine, tell the doctor or nurse that you are taking numient. this is because the medicine may affect the results of some tests. children and adolescents the use of numient is not recommended in patients under 18 years of age. the safety and efficacy of numient in patients under 18 years of age have not been studied other medicines and numient tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines. this is because other medicines can affect the way numient works. do not take numient if you have taken a medicine called a 'non-selective monoamine oxidase (mao) inhibitor' for treating depression in the last 14 days. these medicines include isocarboxazid and phenelzine. if this applies to you, do not take numient and ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice. in particular, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking the following medicines: - other medicines for parkinson's disease, such as 'anticholinergics' (e.g. orphenadrine and trihexyphenidyl), 'selective mao-b inhibitors' (e.g. selegiline and rasagiline), and a 'comt inhibitor' (e.g. entacapone) - ferrous sulphate (used to treat anaemia caused by low levels of iron in the blood). levodopa/carbidopa may make it harder for your body to use iron. therefore, do not take numient and iron supplements or multivitamin supplements containing iron at the same time. after taking one of them, wait at least 2 to 3 hours before taking the other - phenothiazines - such as chlorpromazine, promazine and prochloroperazine (used to treat mental illness) - benzodiazepines such as alprazolam, diazepam, and lorazepam used to treat anxiety - tricyclic antidepressants (tcas; used to treat depression) - papaverine (used to improve blood flow around the body) - treatment for high blood pressure (hypertension) - phenytoin which is used to treat fits (convulsions) - isoniazid which is used to treat tuberculosis - dopamine antagonists used to treat mental disorders, nausea, and vomiting numient with food and drink a high-fat, high-calorie meal delays the absorption of levodopa by two hours. if your diet contains too much protein (meat, eggs, milk, cheese), numient may not work as well as it should. avoid taking your capsules at the same time that you consume a high fat or high protein meal. pregnancy, breast-feeding, and fertility if you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking numient. numient is not recommended during pregnancy and in women of childbearing potential not using contraception. however, your doctor may decide to give you numient if the expected benefits of treatment outweigh possible risks to the unborn child. women should not breast-feed during treatment with numient. driving and using machines numient can cause somnolence (excessive drowsiness) and sudden sleep onset episodes. therefore, you must refrain from driving or engaging in activities where impaired alertness may put yourself or others at risk of serious injury or death (e.g. operating machines) until such recurrent episodes and somnolence have resolved.", 'Entity_Recognition': [{'Text': 'numient', 'Type': 'PRODUCT_NAME', 'BeginOffset': 0, 'EndOffset': 0}, {'Id': 17, 'BeginOffset': 34, 'EndOffset': 54, 'Score':
