Carbidopa/levodopa-responsive myoclonus.

A 64-year-old right-handed woman's right hand and arm developed spontaneous jerks that eventually involved her trunk. As she had some features of parkinsonism, she was treated with carbidopa/levodopa and her myoclonus dramatically improved. The mechanism accounting for this improvement is unknown.

Pathological gambling after bilateral subthalamic nucleus stimulation in Parkinson disease.

We describe a patient with advanced Parkinson's disease who developed pathological gambling within a month after successful bilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) stimulation. There was no history of gambling. On neuropsychological testing, slight cognitive decline was evident 1 year after surgery. Stimulation of the most dorsal contact with and without medication induced worse performances on decision making tests compared with the more ventral contact. Pathological gambling disappeared after discontinuation of pergolide and changing the stimulation parameters. Pathological gambling does not seem to be associated with decision making but appears to be related to a combination of bilateral STN stimulation and treatment with dopamine agonists.

Isolation and characterization of some potential impurities in ropinirole hydrochloride.

Three impurities in ropinirole hydrochloride drug substance at levels approximately 0.06-0.15% were detected by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). These impurities were isolated from the drug substance. These impurities were analyzed using reverse-phase HPLC. Based on the spectral data (IR, NMR and MS), structures of these impurities were characterized as 4-[2-(propylamino) ethyl]-1,3-dihydro-2H-indol-2-one hydrochloride (impurity-A), 5-[2-(diropylamino) ethyl]-1,4-dihydro-3H-benzoxazin-3-one hydrochloride (impurity-B) and 4-[2-(diropylamino) ethyl]-1H-indol-2,3-dione hydrochloride (impurity-C). Synthesis of these impurities is discussed.
