What is Parkinson's?
Parkinson's is caused by loss of dopamine-producing brain cells. Early signs include tremor, slowed movement, stiff muscles and small handwriting.
When to seek medical advice
See a GP for any new tremor, slowness or stiffness. Referral to a neurologist or movement disorder specialist confirms the diagnosis.
Available treatments
Main medicines include levodopa combinations (Sinemet, Madopar), dopamine agonists (ropinirole, pramipexole), MAO-B inhibitors (rasagiline, selegiline) and COMT inhibitors. Deep brain stimulation is available for some advanced cases.
What to expect
Levodopa often provides good symptom control for years. Doses and timings are carefully tailored to reduce fluctuations and side effects.
Self-care
Stay active with walking, swimming, tai chi or specialist exercise classes, eat a balanced diet, keep socially engaged and manage stress and sleep.
How Prescriptsy compares providers
We compare available options using verifiable attributes, not clinical suitability. Only a doctor working for the chosen provider can make that assessment.
We consider indicative price and availability, the consultation and prescription route, and public information about the provider and its licences.
Prescriptsy may receive a fee after a referral. This does not change the user's price or determine the medical information we publish.
Prices, stock and terms can change. Always verify final details with the provider; display order is not medical advice or a treatment recommendation.
