Use of Madopa in children02/02/2007 |
My 6 year old daughter has been prescribed Madopa for suspected dopa responsive dystonia. Although it is a very low dose, I am worried because everything I read says not to give it to people under 25 years old as it may restrict bone growth. What do you think?
This question has been forwarded by Children's Health:
Unfortunately, your question does not fall within the scope of my topic area or that of any other current NetWellness expert. A pediatric neurologist specializing in movement disorders would be the best person for you to discuss these concerns.
