Summary of Clinical Use Click here for help
Used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease as an adjunctive to levodopa or carbidopa. For this indication the drug's primary molecular targets are the central dopamine receptors.
However, the drug's off-target agonist activity at 5-HT2B receptors appears to have been responsible for unacceptable levels of drug-induced cardiac valve damage [1] which lead to the drug's withdrawal from the US market in 2007.
