Various drugs may be used to treat Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, as well as other cardiac arrhythmias. The purpose of these drugs is to slow the electrical signals and excitation of heart muscles.
Unfortunately, a cure for Parkinson's disease has not been found yet. There are only a few drugs that can help minimize its effects. Unfortunately, the side effects of the treatment can be as bad as Parkinson's itself as they include something that has the appearance of senile dementia, including amnesia.
There is no known cure for Parkinson's disease. The goal of treatment is to control symptoms.
Medications control symptoms, mostly by increasing the levels of dopamine in the brain. At certain points during the day, the helpful effects of the medication often wears off, and symptoms can return. Your doctor need to be change the:
Type of medication
Dose
Amount of time between doses
How the medications are taken
Work closely with your doctors and therapists to adjust the treatment program. Never change or stop taking any medications without talking with your doctor.
Many medications can cause severe side effects, including hallucinations, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and delirium. Monitoring and follow-up by the health care provider is important.
Eventually, symptoms such as stooped posture, frozen movements, and speech difficulties may not respond very well to drug treatment.
Medications used to treat symptoms of Parkinson's disease are:
Levodopa (L-dopa), Sinemet, levodopa and carbidopa (Atamet)
Pramipexole (Mirapex), ropinirole (Requip), bromocriptine (Parlodel)
Selegiline (Eldepryl, Deprenyl), rasagiline (Azilect)
Amantadine or anticholinergic medications -- to reduce early or mild tremors
Entacapone -- to prevent the breakdown of levodopa
Lifestyle changes that may be helpful for Parkinson's disease:
Good general nutrition and health
Exercising, but adjusting the activity level to meet changing energy levels
Regular rest periods and avoiding stress
Physical therapy, speech therapy, and occupational therapy
Railings or banisters placed in commonly used areas of the house
Special eating utensils
Social workers or other counseling services to help you cope with the disorder and get assistance (such as Meals-on-Wheels)
Less commonly, surgery may be an option for patients with very severe Parkinson's disease who no longer respond to many medications. These surgeries do not cure Parkinson's, but may help some patients:
In deep brain stimulation (DBS), the surgeon implants electrical stimulators in specific areas of the brain to help with movement.
Another type of surgery destroys brain tissues that cause Parkinson's symptoms.
It can be treated, but not cured. There are a number of useful anti-Parkinson's medications which can help dimiish symptoms, such as tremor, gait instability and the like. And there are anti-depressant treatments which can ameliorate the depression, which can affect up to 50% of people with the disease.
No, there is no cure only treatment to try and reduce the effects of it.
