Summary

This study looks at whether terazosin, a drug usually used for high blood pressure, can slow the progression of Parkinson's disease. Researchers will track changes in heart and brain scans over three years in 15 people with early signs of Parkinson's or a sleep disorder that raises Parkinson's risk. The goal is to see if the drug can protect nerve cells and delay or ease symptoms.
