Werner Staubitzer asked about use of apo-morphine for management of
Parkinsonian symptoms.
 
Werner:
Apo-morphine is a potent dopamine agonist with properties similar to drugs
such as Permax (pergolide).  It is not an approved drug in the USA but is
widely prescribed in Europe.  Perhaps some European articipants can help you
understand its pros and cons for routine therapy.
