On-Demand Therapy for Off-Episodes in Parkinson's Disease
Off episodes continue to occur and affect daily activities despite adjustments to oral levodopa regimens and polypharmacy. Gastric dysmotility and variable intestinal absorption can delay clinical benefit of levodopa doses. Novel administration of dopaminergic therapies that bypass gastrointestinal delivery can be used as needed when off episodes occur to restore symptom benefit.
