About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Entacom Plus 150 Tablet
Entacom Plus 150 Tablet is a combination medication used to treat Parkinson's disease. It contains three key ingredients:
* Levodopa (150mg): A precursor to dopamine, helping replace the brain's lost levels.
* Carbidopa (37.5mg): Prevents levodopa from being broken down in the bloodstream before reaching the brain, increasing effectiveness.
* Entacapone (200mg): Blocks catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT), allowing for longer-lasting effects of levodopa by delaying its breakdown in the body.
This combination helps improve movement symptoms like tremor, rigidity, and slowness of movements associated with Parkinson's disease. Consult with a doctor before using Entacom Plus 150 Tablet to ensure it is appropriate for your individual needs.

About Levodopa
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.
How It Works
Levodopa is converted to dopamine in the brain, restoring neurotransmitter levels and improving motor function.
All Active Ingredients
Entacapone
Entacapone inhibits the COMT enzyme, thereby preventing the degradation of levodopa and increasing its bioavailability to the central nervous system.
