The aim of our study was to evaluate the influence of low-intensity exercise on levodopa absorption and levodopa motor effect. We studied the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of levodopa under resting conditions and under a workload of 50 watts for 2 hours on a cycle ergometer in 12 parkinsonia
