We report the clinical response of a parkinsonian patient with severe motor fluctuations who was begun on continuous, nighttime-only levodopa infusions accompanied by oral carbidopa/levodopa use during the day. Sleep disturbances improved immediately. There was a gradual reduction in "off" time and severity of dyskinesias during the waking day. Nighttime-only levodopa infusions have a carryover benefit to the waking hours and may be suitable for long-term therapy to reduce daily motor fluctuations in some patients with Parkinson's disease.
