There are several highly effective classes of medications available to help control many of the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Regardless of whether your doctor chooses to use one medication or a combination of several different medications, the goal of therapy is to provide relief from many of the motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease, such as akinesia , bradykinesia , postural instability , and resting tremor . While just about everyone with Parkinson's disease will receive some type of therapy, not all people can or will be treated in the same manner.
Therapy varies among individuals and even changes over time.
In fact, it is quite common for your doctor to prescribe different medications throughout the course of this condition. Many of the medications work together to enhance their combined overall effect. Such combinations of medications work together to provide a greater therapeutic benefit to you. Parkinson's disease is progressive and the types of symptoms will change over time. Whether you take one medication or many different medications, your doctor is looking to create a balance between safe and effective therapy and relief of your symptoms.
