Medicines to treat Parkinson's disease
Levodopa is the gold standard of dopamine replacement therapy in Parkinson's disease. It is given in combination with a dopa decarboxylase inhibitor (carbidopa) to reduce its peripheral breakdown and to reduce nausea. Levodopa is particularly effective in treating akinesia and rigidity, and has a fluctuating effect in treating tremor. Clinical studies suggest that levodopa treatment does not worsen disease progression.

Etiology, diagnostic imaging and grading scales of Parkinson's patients
Parkinson's disease is characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra and by the presence of Lewy bodies in the brainstem. Motor symptoms become apparent when 60% to 80% of the dopaminergic neurons are lost in the substantia nigra.

Stroke causes Parkinson's disease
Several studies have been conducted and hypothesized that stroke causes Parkinson's disease to explain the cases of previously healthy patients who can develop Parkinson's disease. Researchers believe that stroke is the cause of damage to brain cells responsible for dopamine production and causes Parkinson's disease.
