Parkinson Medications

We have a wide choice of medications available at our online drugstore. However, let us first talk what exactly is the disease of Parkinson and what are the signs. Parkinson’s disease is a chronic, progressive neurological disorder that primarily affects movement and motor control. It is caused by the gradual loss of dopamine-producing neurons in a specific region of the brain, leading to impaired communication between nerve cells. The condition typically develops slowly and worsens over time, most commonly affecting older adults, though early-onset forms can occur. Common symptoms of Parkinson’s disease include tremor at rest, muscle rigidity, slowed movement (bradykinesia), and postural instability. In addition to motor symptoms, many individuals experience non-motor features such as sleep disturbances, mood changes, cognitive impairment, and autonomic dysfunction. While there is currently no cure, early diagnosis and comprehensive treatment can help manage symptoms, maintain function, and improve quality of life. We have the following medications available: carbidopa + levodopa, Artane, Kemadrin, Eldepryl, Parlodel, Exelon, Bromocriptine, Mirapex, Requip, Ropinirole, Sinemet and Stalevo so there is always a medication for your specific situation and to improve your life.

Best treatments for Parkinson’s disease

Although Parkinson’s disease has no cure, pharmacological treatment is highly effective in managing symptoms and improving quality of life. Medications are selected based on disease stage, symptom profile, patient age, and tolerance, and are often used in combination to optimize symptom control. At our online pharmacy we have a wide choice of proven medicines available for your Parkinson treatment such as: carbidopa + levodopa, Artane, Kemadrin, Eldepryl, Parlodel, Exelon, Bromocriptine, Mirapex, Requip, Ropinirole, Sinemet and Stalevo. Let us do a deep dive into these medications with their pros and cons, how they work so you can select which will be best for your personal situation:

Levodopa-Based Therapy

Carbidopa/Levodopa (Sinemet®)Levodopa is the most effective treatment for Parkinson’s disease and remains the cornerstone of therapy. It is converted into dopamine in the brain, directly replenishing deficient dopamine levels. Carbidopa is combined with levodopa to inhibit its peripheral breakdown, increasing central availability and reducing side effects such as nausea. Sinemet is commonly used for: Motor symptom control, Improving mobility and daily functioning and Moderate to advanced Parkinson’s disease.

Stalevo® (Carbidopa/Levodopa/Entacapone) combines levodopa and carbidopa with entacapone, a catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) inhibitor. Entacapone prolongs the effect of levodopa by reducing its metabolism. Stalevo is particularly useful for patients experiencing: “Wearing-off” motor fluctuations and Shortened duration of levodopa benefit.

Dopamine Agonists

Dopamine agonists stimulate dopamine receptors directly, mimicking dopamine’s effects without requiring conversion in the brain. They are used as monotherapy in early disease or as adjunct therapy in later stages.

Ropinirole (Requip®)is a non-ergot dopamine agonist used to: Delay initiation of levodopa therapy, Reduce motor fluctuations, Improve tremor and rigidity.

Pramipexole (Mirapex®) is another non-ergot dopamine agonist effective in treating early and advanced Parkinson’s disease. It may also help alleviate depression and restless legs syndrome associated with Parkinson’s.

Bromocriptine (Parlodel®) is an ergot-derived dopamine agonist that was among the earliest agents used in Parkinson’s disease. While effective, it is now used less frequently due to a higher risk of side effects compared with newer agents.

MAO-B Inhibitors

Selegiline (Eldepryl®) inhibits monoamine oxidase-B (MAO-B), an enzyme that breaks down dopamine in the brain. By slowing dopamine degradation, it enhances and prolongs dopamine activity. MAO-B inhibitors are used for: Early Parkinson’s disease, Adjunct therapy to levodopa and Reducing motor fluctuations.

Anticholinergic Medications

Anticholinergics help restore the balance between dopamine and acetylcholine in the brain and are particularly useful for tremor-predominant Parkinson’s disease. Trihexyphenidyl (Artane®) and Procyclidine (Kemadrin®) may reduce: Resting tremor and muscle rigidity. Their use is generally limited to younger patients due to the risk of cognitive side effects, especially in older adults. Additional Supportive Therapy

Rivastigmine (Exelon®) is not a primary Parkinson’s motor medication. It is approved for Parkinson’s disease dementia, helping manage cognitive decline, attention deficits, and behavioral symptoms by increasing acetylcholine levels in the brain. Treatment Strategy and Clinical Considerations

Some advise on strategy and considerations, before starting with yout treatment plan. Therapy is individualized and evolves as the disease progresses. Combination treatment is often required for optimal symptom control, so need specific guidance from your doctor. Long-term levodopa use may lead to motor fluctuations and dyskinesias. Dopamine agonists and MAO-B inhibitors can reduce levodopa dependence and Cognitive status and age influence medication choice. Regular follow-up and dose adjustment are essential to balance symptom relief with side effect management.
