“…In a small study melatonin was benefi cial, with improvement noted in 10 of 14 patients who had failed to respond to clonazepam or were unable to tolerate it [ 134 ]. Possible benefi ts of ChE-Is as a treatment for RBD need further study [ 135 ]. Although not specifi cally tested in demented PD patients, modafi nil, an agent which promotes wakefulness, can be considered to treat EDS.…”

“…Ze względu na potencjalnie korzystne działanie w RBD prowadzono również próby leczenia tego zaburzenia agonistami dopaminy (pramipeksolem, ropinirolem) [26] oraz inhibitorami acetylocholinoesterazy (donepezilem, rywastygminą) [27]. Skuteczność leków o tak różnym mechanizmie działania w RBD może wynikać ze złożonej patogenezy zaburzenia, wskazującej na udział neuronów serotoninergicznych, noradrenergicznych, hipokretynowych, acetylocholinowych, gabaergicznych i dopaminergicznych [28].…”

“…Due to the potentially beneficial effects in RBD, attempts were also made to treat this disorder with dopamine agonists (pramipexole, ropinirole) [26] and acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (donepezil, rivastigmine) [27]. The efficacy of drugs of such different mechanism of action in RBD may result from a complex pathogenesis of the disorder, indicating the participation of serotonergic, noradrenergic, hypocretin, acetylcholine, GABAergic and dopaminergic neurons [28].…”
