Brief Summary  
There are very few studies assessing the effectiveness of trihexyphenidyl in improving motor symptoms in PD.Studies comparing effectiveness of trihexyphenidyl and levodopa in PD patients are also very rare.We plan to evaluate 30 patients with Parkinson’s disease and objectively assess the response of their motor features to levodopa and trihexyphenidyl respectively.
