When Levodopa Is No Longer Consistent: Hybrid

Join us in-person or online for a conversation with Dr. Zoltan Mari, MD. If you live in the Portland metro area, we strongly encourage you to attend in person!

In this talk presented by Supernus Pharmaceuticals, one of PRO’s Annual Sponsors, Dr. Mari, will discuss Parkinson’s and Off periods and the role the medication Apokyn can play in addressing these episodes. Apokyn is different than other Parkinson’s medications in that it bypasses the GI tract. Because it uses a different route of administration, it is readily available in the brain to end off time and let you return to activity.

Dr. Mari is an expert in Parkinson’s Disease. Currently, he is the Ruvo Family Chair and Director for Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorder at the Cleveland Clinic’s Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health in Las Vegas NV. Dr. Mari has previously served as full time faculty at Johns Hopkins University. Dr. Mari has been a part of dozens of clinical studies.
