Can you suggest some good medicines for parkinson disease?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
The old standard...: Is Sinemet (carbidopa and levodopa). It works really well in most people...but not all. A class of meds called a "dopamine agonist" is commonly used, too. Med choice is a good thing to discuss with your neurologist.
