About this study

This is a research study investigating elevated homocysteine in the blood of patients with Parkinson's disease who are currently receiving treatment with levodopa. We are evaluating if elevated homocysteine can be corrected using open label B vitamin therapy, as well as the impact of homocysteine levels on cognitive function.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
