“More about parkinsonism after taking ecstasy”. 
N Engl J Med. 1999 Oct 28;341(18):1400; discussion 140.
Abstract
Mintzer et al. hypothesized that their patient had parkinsonism as a result of a delayed neurotoxic effect of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) on his basal ganglia and noted that his condition most closely resembled nigrostriatal damage induced by 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP). We question this conclusion.
