28 Summary Motor complications (wearing-off and dyskinesia) i are frequently observed with disease progression and chronic pulsatile levodopa treatment Progressive denervation and fluctuations in plasma levodopa levels are likely to contribute to the development of motor complications Continuous dopaminergic stimulation can delay complications in early PD and reverse them in advanced patients with benefit extending to quality of life and non-motor symptoms GPSRC CNS RTG 28

29 PD treatment algorithm Add MAO-B inhibitor (i.e. rasagiline 1 mg/day) Raise dopamine agonist dose if tolerated Add amantadine up to 100 mg three times daily Untreated Insufficient motor control Wearing-off Dyskinesia Start with non- ergot agonist and raise to average effective dose Add levodopa three times daily Try not exceed mg/day Increase frequency of levodopa administration Use entacapone Adjust levodopa dose Consider tolcapone Consider more invasive therapies (DBS apomorphine or levodopa duodenal infusion) DBS, deep brain stimulation; MAO-B, mono-amine oxidase B Antonini & Barone.
