INTERVENTION: Erythropoietin Group A (experimental): 0.5 mg NeuroEPO by intranasal route, 3 times a week for 4 weeks (induction period) and, then continue with 1mg weekly for 20 weeks (maintenance period). Group B (experimental): 1.0 mg NeuroEPO by intranasal route, 3 times a week for 4 weeks (induction period) and then, continue with the same doses weekly for 20 weeks (maintenance period). Group C (control): Placebo. This group will be divide in two equal subgroups (one for each experimental group). The patients will receive the same doses, schema and administration route. NeuroEPO CONDITION: Parkinson Diseases Parkinson's disease stage II‐III PRIMARY OUTCOME: Total UPDRS Value (UPDRS scale). Measuring time: 9 months. INCLUSION CRITERIA: 1. Patients with Parkinson's disease, who meet the diagnostic criteria of BBL and stage II‐III according to Hoehn and Yahr scale. 2. Patients older than 18 years. 3. One or more years of evolution of motor symptoms. 4. Good response to dopaminergic stimulation. 5. Acceptable general health status, not previous polygllobulia (Hto equal or lower than 50). 6. Patients who consent to participate in the study by signing the informed consent model. SECONDARY OUTCOME: Related to eficacy 1. UPDRS motor. measure by UPDRS III. Measuring time: 0, 6, 9 months 2.
