... Examples of dopamine agonists include pramipexole (Mirapex) and apomorphine (Apokyn). Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) are thought to work by preventing the breakdown of dopamine. This increases the amount of dopamine in the brain, which can treat some symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. ...

... Dopamine agonists (Apokyn, Mirapex, Mirapex ER, Requip, Requip XL) can be taken alone or as add-ons to mimic the effect of dopamine. These can be administered as a pill, as a patch, or by injection. Monoamine oxidase B inhibitors (Azilect, Eldepryl, Xadago, Zelapar) can be taken alone or as an add-on. ...
