Can I drive while taking Inbrija?

Category: Inbrija

Some people on levodopa-based treatments have reported extreme somnolence or falling asleep during daily activities. Thus, until patients know how the medication affects them, those starting starting Inbrija should avoid driving, operating machinery, or other activities that may result in harm if they suddenly fall asleep.
