Nickel appears to suppress the effect of the carbon burst; however, the nickel spark can be identified by tiny blocks of brilliant white light. Silicon suppresses the carbon burst even more than nickel. When silicon is present, the carrier line usually ends abruptly in a white flash of light.
The standard medication used to treat Parkinson's is Levodopa, a drug that initially has major benefits but can later also produce serious side effects in the form of involuntary, jerky movements. A research group at Lund University has now found a way to study what it is in the brain that causes these side effects.
Increased tremors and chest pain are considered serious side effects of pramipexole dihydrochloride. Pramipexole dihydrochloride is used to alleviate symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Pramipexole dihydrochloride works by mimicking the effects of dopamine in the brain. Side effects of a dopamine agonist may include fatigue and an inability to concentrate. Side effects of pramipexole dihydrochloride may include joint pain.
