Ask the MD Video: Myths about Levodopa

Dear Friend, Levodopa is the most effective drug for Parkinson's symptoms, so it's the most commonly prescribed. But there are a lot of misconceptions about what the medication can and can't do and what side effects it may cause. In this video, I separate the facts from the fiction when it comes to levodopa.   I hope this and other "Ask the MD" videos and blogs help you and your loved ones navigate Parkinson's care and research. Watch your email for regular updates from me. Best,  Rachel Dolhun, MD
