Treatment of Parkinsonian syndrome with dexetimide.
In an open study, 60 Parkinson patients with varying aetiology were submitted to a treatment with the long-acting antiparkinsonian drug dexetimide and L-Dopa. Rigor, tremor and akinesia were favourably influenced. An advantage over other antiparkinsonian agents is its long duration of action and the possibility of a simple dosage. Further investigations concerning its long-term effect and elucidation of its interactions with different drugs commonly administered in parkinsonian disorders seem desirable.[1]References
