  • Treatment of dyskinesia
    Patent number: 7935718
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of compounds that enhance H3-histamine receptor activity, or activation (e.g. H3-histamine receptor agonists) for the treatment of dyskinesia. The compounds are particularly useful for treating dyskinesia associated with parkinsonian therapy.

  • Treatment of dyskinesia
    Publication number: 20060069039
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the treatment of dyskinesia with compounds of General Formula (I) such as topiramate. The compound may be topiramate or a derivative thereof. The dyskinesia may be associated with a basil ganglia-related movement disorder such as parkinsonism and may also arise as a side-effect of other therapeutic agents (e.g. L-DOPA).

  • Treatment of movement disorders with metabotropic glutamate receptors antagonist
    Publication number: 20030109504
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of compounds, which inhibit metabotropic glutamate receptor activity, or activation, for use in the treatment of movement disorders associated with a poverty of movement (e.g. Parkinson's disease). The compounds are particularly useful when used in combination with another therapeutic agent and surprisingly reduce the extent and incidence of side effects (e.g. dyskinesia) associated with such therapeutic agents.
