""Something is very off with this article. It wants to say that any sort of dopaminergic treatment (even agonists) is harmful. Well what alternative do we have? They do not offer one that i can see. Maybe we will one day have GABA and adenosine receptor agonists as our gold cadillac treatment but for now we're stuck and frankly I'd rather be able to move than to worry about whether or not I can begin to generate my own dopamine 10 or 20 years from now. ""

I totally accept your point about wishing to move now, HOWEVER unless we encourage challenging research activity outside the dopamine / DA mindset, Pharma and reactionary parts of the medical community will be happy to feed coming generations the same hackneyed palliatives for the next 40 years.
