When is the best time to start taking medication for Parkinson’s disease?

Once diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, medication should be taken immediately as prescribed by your doctor.
Parkinson’s disease is a chronic progressive disease, and its treatment includes medication, surgery, exercise therapy, psychological counseling and nursing care. Medication is the first choice and the main treatment in the whole treatment process, while surgery is an effective supplement to medication.
Surgery is an effective complement to medication. The principle of medication is to achieve the goal of effectively improving symptoms, work ability and quality of life. Early diagnosis and early treatment are advocated, not only to improve the symptoms, but also to delay the progression of the disease. Therefore, once diagnosed, oral medication should be started. Commonly used medications include pramipexole, dobazepine tablets, and piribedil.
When considering Parkinson’s disease, it is recommended to consult and treat the neurologist in time.
