Trial Outcomes & Findings for Parcopa Versus Carbidopa-levodopa in a Single Dose Cross-over Comparison Study (NCT NCT00590122)

NCT ID: NCT00590122

Last Updated: 2023-03-14

Results Overview

Time to "on" state (benefit with regard to mobility, stiffness and slowness) with parcopa versus carbidopa/levodopa immediate release compound. This measurement is compared between Parcopa and carbidopa/levodopa wit the first morning dose of each intervention. Study duration was 2 days.
