Hello there.  I can understand your concern.  Thats how it is woth parkinson's disease. The drug has levodopa and carbidopa combination and its the treatment for parkinson's.  I would just suggest he continues the same. But still get an evaluation again by a neurologist in person. Best regards. Dr. Anil kumar jain. Bangalore.
