Levodopa
MOA AE Containdications |
MOA: increases DA precursor in CNS
AE: orthostatic hypotension, cardiac stimulation of both a and B receptors, dyskinesias, "on-off syndrome" Containdications: vit.B6/pyridoxine(increases peripheral conversion to DA), tricyclic antideprssants, (increase orthostatic hypotension), Antipsychotics (are DA antagonists), anticholinergics (slow gastric emptying --> derc abs of L-dopa), MAOI (incr effect of DA --> HTN) [PAAAM] |
|
Carbidopa
MOA |
MOA: blocks AADC in periphery, increases Ldopa in CNS
does not cross BBB Given with Ldopa to reduce side effects |
|
DA agonists
MOA AE Containdications |
1st LINE!!!!!!

|
Amantadine
MOA AE |
MOA:incr. DA release from good neurons
Also blocks NMDA R's AE: mild and reversible hallucinations, confusion, nightmares, etc |
|
Anticholinergic Drugs
MOA AE |
Trihexyphenidyl / benztropine
block unopposed cholinergic effects in BG --> decr. tremor AE: CNS: Confusion, delirium, somolence, hallucinations Peripheral: CYCLOPLEGIA, constipation, urinary retention |
|
