About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Entacom Plus 100 Tablet: A Comprehensive Solution for Parkinson's Disease
Entacom Plus 100 Tablet is a potent medication prescribed for the management of moderate to severe Parkinson’s disease. The formulation combines three essential components:
* Levodopa (100mg): A precursor to dopamine, Levodopa helps replenish the brain's natural neurotransmitter, alleviating movement symptoms.
* Carbidopa (25mg): This medication prevents premature breakdown of Levodopa in the bloodstream, enhancing its effectiveness.
* Entacapone (200mg): Entacapone inhibits catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT), reducing the degradation of Levodopa in the brain, promoting its therapeutic benefits.
This combination therapy offers enhanced efficacy and improved symptom control compared to single-agent treatments.
Important: Entacom Plus 100 Tablet is a prescription medication and should only be used under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional.

About Entacapone
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.
How It Works
Entacapone inhibits the COMT enzyme, thereby preventing the degradation of levodopa and increasing its bioavailability to the central nervous system.
