โœฆ Synopsis


Abstract

Neuroleptic malignant syndrome is a serious complication of levodopa withdrawal in patients with Parkinson's disease. We report a patient with advanced parkinsonism who developed neuroleptic malignant syndrome in the setting of inadequate levodopa intake. His symptoms improved with levodopa replacement, but dramatically worsened when enteral feeding was begun due to interference with intestinal absorption of levodopa. ยฉ 2001 Movement Disorder Society.
