Clinical Manifestation & Management of Parkinson's Disease
Learn to manage Parkinson’s disease medications effectively with this activity. Refresh your understanding of its pathophysiology, drug targets, classes of antiparkinson's drugs, clinical use, and adverse effects.

About this course
Clinicians, especially pharmacists, are highly trained to manage the complex medication regimens of patients with Parkinson’s disease. Adequate attention is required in managing Parkinson’s medications and side effects. Otherwise, symptoms can become poorly controlled, and the patient’s condition can deteriorate easily. Accordingly, clinicians’ knowledge needs to be up-to-date on the recent discoveries and clinical guidelines in the management of Parkinson’s disease.
This activity will provide a refresher on the pathophysiology of Parkinson’s disease and help them understand and identify the biological targets for drug intervention. It will also discuss the different classes of antiparkinson’s drugs, their clinical use, and their adverse effects.
