Promising new drugs for Parkinson's disease
August 1997
You'll hear about two promising new drugs for Parkinson's disease...Mirapex (pramipexole) and Requip (ropinirole).
These drugs are close to approval in the U.S. and Canada.
Mirapex and Requip are dopamine agonists...but they're more selective than Permax (pergolide) or Parlodel (bromocriptine).
