    Abstract

    (+)-4-propyl-9-hydroxynaphthoxazine (PHNO) is a new dopamine agonist which is capable of producing a sustained response in parkinsonian patients with "on-off" fluctuations when given as a continuous infusion either nasogastrically or intravenously. These data suggest that a sustained release formulation of PHNO may provide a significant, new treatment for patients with "on-off" fluctuations.
