Abstract

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms, often complicated by long-term dopaminergic therapy (Rafieipour et al., 2020; Gopalakrishna & Alexander, 2015). We reported a case of early-onset PD with a strong family history, marked disease progression over three decades, and severe levodopa-induced dyskinesias showing partial response to clozapine.
