Follow-up checks

If you are diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, your healthcare professional should see you every 6 to 12 months.

Your healthcare professional should use these appointments to discuss the risk of developing unwanted side effects, especially after starting a new medicine or changing the dose of one you have been taking for some time.

Your healthcare professional should also ask you if you are experiencing hallucinations or delusions.
