  • Title: Psychiatric disturbances occurring during levodopa therapy of Parkinson's disease.
    Author: Lloyd KG.
    Journal: Prim Care; 1977 Sep; 4(3):561-75. PubMed ID: 264230.
    Abstract:
    Psychiatric problems constitute one of the prime reasons for failure in levodopa therapy in Parkinson's disease. While a variety of symptoms may be seen, the levodopa itself does not produce a defined set of psychiatric symptoms. The single most important factor determining the psychiatric response to levodopa therapy is the mental state of the patient before therapy.
