About Apokyn

Drug Details

Apomorphine, marketed as Apokyn, is an injectable medication specifically used to manage "off" episodes in individuals with advanced Parkinson's disease. These episodes are characterized by reduced movement abilities between doses of regular Parkinson's medications. Apomorphine works as a dopamine agonist, meaning it activates dopamine receptors in the brain, helping to improve movement and reduce symptoms like tremors, stiffness, and slowed motion. It is important to note that Apomorphine is not a substitute for your regular Parkinson's medications but is used in conjunction with them. While it can significantly enhance movement during off periods, it may also cause side effects such as nausea and vomiting. Always consult with your healthcare provider to ensure this treatment is safe and appropriate for your condition. Continue taking all prescribed medications as directed by your doctor.
