Hi,

First of all, your father should not take both drugs in the same time.He should take Ropark and Parkitidin in turns. This means he should take Ropark for 6 months then he should stop the drug for two weeks,then he should take Parkitidin for another six months and so on.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
