Smell loss is an early symptom of Parkinson's disease.
Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease can be distinguished by smell tasting.
The majority of Parkinson's disease patients with smell loss are functionally anosmic or severely hyposmic
Olfactory disturbances in Parkinson's disease may have diagnostic utility for the differentiation of Parkinson's disease from other movement disorders.
Currently, there is no cure for smell loss in Parkinson's disease.
