Abstract:
Objective The clinical efficacy and safety of L dopa monotherapy and concomitant L dopa therapy with dopamine agonists (bromocriptine or pergolide) of the treatment of Parkinson's disease Methods The clinical trial was performed in the multicentre,open label study L dopa group: 47 cases,L dopa plus bromocriptine group: 43 cases and L dopa plus pergolide group: 48 cases The clinical efficacy was assessed with modified Webster's scale and motor dysfunction rating scale for Parkinson's disease ( MDRSPD ),and safety data included blood hepatic and renal function tests,blood and urine routine tests,arterial blood pressure,heart rate measurements and electrocardiogram were also analyzed at the beginning and end of study The average daily dose of L dopa in levedopa group was (523 3?235 9) mg,The average daily dose of L dopa and bromocriptine were (526 7?241 3) mg and (7 3?1 5) mg in L dopa plus bromocriptine group,respectively The average daily dose of L dopa and pergolide were (558 3?192 9)mg and (0 235?0 045) mg in L dopa plus pergolide group separately Result The clinical improvement was about 74 5%both in assessment of modified Webster's scale and MDRSPD in L dopa group The clinical score was improved in 69 8% (Webster's scale) and 79 1% (MDRSPD) in L dopa plus bromocriptine group,respectively The clinical improved rates were 77 9%( Webster's scale ) and 81 3%( MDRSPD ) in L dopa plus bergolide group The incidence rates of side effects were 27 7%in L dopa group,39 5%in L dopa plus bromocriptine and 18 8%in L dopa plus pergolide groups Conclusion There was an efficacy in treatment of Parkinson's disease in either L dopa monotherapy or combination with bromocriptine or pergolide The treatment of L dopa alone was more effective in the early stage of Parkinson's disease and concomitant L dopa therapy with dopamine agonists were more effective in the advanced stage of Parkinson's disease,pergolide was not only more effective,safe and tolerable,but also fewer adverse events than Bromocriptine was in this short term trial
