>The term "contraindicated" essentially means that the drug in question
>should not be given to a Parkinsonsian.  In Parkinson's disease, the basic
>problem is the chemical nature of the disease itself.  many drugs alter the
>brain's dopamine system and may not be recognized as habing a potential
>detrimental effect on Parkinson's disesae simply because the drugs are
>employed for the treatment of other conditions.  All patients with
>Parkinson's disease should have a list of these drugs available for their
>physician's reference and for emergency situations.
