It is related to the co-enzymes and I think it may be marketed as a "supplement" as opposed to a "drug". The proponents say it has a beneficial effect for "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome; Depression; Hypertension; Alzheimer's Disease; Parkinson's Disease; Athletic Endurance; and Anti-Aging." Parkinson's patients would be best advised to seek the opinion of their medical professional. The naysayers say it is premature to suggest any benefit without proper double blind peer reviewed scientifically based studies etc. Swerdlow RH. Is NADH effective in the treatment of Parkinson's disease? Drugs and Aging 13: 263-268 Oct 1998. I don't have the full text handy. but his article concluded "premature" as I recall. You can search the Parkinson's archives for NADH or you can search Google for NADH. If you need help to do so just ask. Don't get fooled by any web marketing "hype". There are no "magic bullets" yet.
