About this webinar

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.

At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to:

  1. Describe the pathophysiology of Parkinson’s disease

  2. Discuss the motor and non-motor symptoms associated with Parkinson’s disease

  3. Explain the targets and strategy for treating Parkinson’s disease

  4. Discuss the pharmacology and clinical use of the different classes of drugs used in Parkinson's disease
