About these molecules
Carbidopa25mg
Full details →Entacapone200mg
Full details →Entacapone is a medication used in conjunction with levodopa to treat Parkinson's disease symptoms. It enhances the effectiveness of levodopa by inhibiting catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT), an enzyme that breaks down levodopa before it reaches the brain. This leads to increased dopamine availability, improving motor control and reducing symptoms such as tremors and stiffness. In summary, Entacapone is a crucial adjunct therapy for managing Parkinson's disease effectively.
Levodopa100mg
Full details →Levodopa is an antiparkinson agent used to treat Parkinson's disease. It works by converting to dopamine in the brain, replenishing the levels of this neurotransmitter and alleviating motor symptoms. Levodopa is effective in managing both motor and non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Common side effects may include nausea and dizziness, but these usually resolve over time. In summary, Levodopa is crucial for managing Parkinson's disease.
