Parkinson's Treatments



Parkinson's disease cannot be cured, but medications can help control symptoms. In some later cases, surgery, such as Deep Brain Stimulation, may be advised.


There are many research efforts and clinical trials searching for better treatment of even a cure for Parkinson's Disease.
