[Parkinson syndrome: iatrogenic causes, iatrogenic treatment results].
Iatrogenically induced problems are well known in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Too rapid introduction or changes in dosage of dopamine agonists and levodopa may lead to acute side effects. Wrong dosage of these drugs in the treatment of advanced Parkinson's disease can lead to severe dyskinesia. All other drugs used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease also have a side effect profile which must be known to the treating physician. In addition, iatrogenic problems may also be found in the general management of the patient and his family. It is also well known that a parkinsonian syndrome may be induced by several types of drugs.
