Sebbene la terapia dopaminergica rappresenti la forma di trattamento più efficace per i pazienti con malattia di Parkinson (MP), l’uso a lungo termine di questi farmaci è associato a fluttuazioni motorie invalidanti. Poiché i pazienti potrebbero non richiedere spontaneamente assistenza quando si manifestano fluttuazioni, occorre adottare opportune strategie per identificare e alleviare la disfunzione motoria. Questo breve opuscolo intende sensibilizzare il lettore su quanto segue: • le diverse tipologie di fluttuazione motoria, il motivo per cui si manifestano e come riconoscerle • i farmaci eventualmente associabili alla levodopa per ridurre le fluttuazioni • terapie avanzate ed emergenti che consentiranno di migliorare i risultati Nessun paziente è uguale all’altro in termini di progressione della MP o risposta alla terapia. Questa pubblicazione di Fast Facts fornisce ai medici le informazioni necessarie per offrire un’assistenza personalizzata efficace, che migliorerà la qualità di vita dei pazienti. Indice: • Definizioni e fisiopatologia delle fluttuazioni motorie • Agenti che potenziano l’azione della levodopa • Terapie avanzate • Principi di gestione • Direzioni future
