Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a prevalent neurodegenerative disorder that occurs in old age due to a decrease in dopamine, which causes nerve cell destruction. This disease is difficult to diagnose since its symptoms are similar to those of the aging process. Those with PD have impaired motor control and function, dyskinesia, and tremors. To treat PD, drugs that enhance the amount of dopamine given to the brain are administered to alleviate symptoms. This inquiry examines the prescription of rotigotine to achieve this objective. The primary objective of this review is to examine the usage of rotigotine in both the late and early stages of PD. The statistical model utilized in the review found that there was not a significant difference in the dosage of rotigotine prescribed to late and early-stage PD patients, however, there were some confounding variables that may have skewed this result; therefore, further research is necessary to validate or nullify this hypothesis.
