This animal study (n=8) investigated the efficacy of Banisteriopsis caapi (0.1 -; 0.3 mg/kg harmine) alone and in combination with L-DOPA (4 -; 7 mg/kg) to treat parkinsonian dyskinesia in a marmoset disease model. B. caapi alone has a mild antiparkinsonian effect but does not enhance the L-DOPA response or reduce dyskinesia.
