Compare First-Line Meds for Parkinson’s

July 2023

You can reduce mix-ups with first-line meds for Parkinson’s disease.

Meds don’t slow progression of this movement disorder...but can improve symptoms, such as stiffness or tremors.

Levodopa/carbidopa (Sinemet, etc) will be used first in many cases. It’s one of the most effective options, but has the highest risk of uncontrolled, involuntary movements, or dyskinesias.
