Don’t wait to speak up about Parkinson’s disease–related hallucinations and delusions
Telling your healthcare provider about your symptoms can make all the difference
Ask your healthcare provider about treatment
If you or your loved one is seeing, hearing, or experiencing things that others don't (hallucinations) or believing things that aren't true (delusions), NUPLAZID may help.
NUPLAZID is the only medicine approved to treat hallucinations and delusions associated with Parkinson's disease (PD).
Parkinson’s disease–related hallucinations and delusions may be more common than you think
Around 50% of people living with Parkinson’s disease (PD) may experience hallucinations and/or delusions over the course of their disease, and these symptoms can get worse over time.
Whether these symptoms occur sometimes or have become more frequent, it’s important to share your experiences with your healthcare provider. The sooner your doctor knows about new or worsening symptoms, the sooner they can help.
