Abstract		Important discoveries concerning biochemical changes in Parkinson's disease some 40 years ago formed the basis for revolutonary advances in the, treatment of this malady. However, it soon became clear that long-term treatment causes severe and as yet unknown problems. This is why correct diagnosis and rational decision-making in the management of these patients are of utmost importance.
