This work offers a comprehensive and fully updated overview of supportive patient management strategies, highlighting therapeutic approaches other that dopaminergic agents and conventional antiparkinsonian drugs. This second edition: reviews the neuroprotective effects of selegiline on Parkinson's disease; investigates ways of enhancing the effectiveness of levodopa-based therapy; presents methods of speech therapy with well-documented short- and long-term efficacy; and more.
