How Elcapon Products work
Levodopa + Carbidopa + Entacapone is a combination of three medicines: Levodopa + Carbidopa + Entacapone1, Levodopa + Carbidopa + Entacapone2 and Levodopa + Carbidopa + Entacapone3 which treat Parkinsonism. Levodopa + Carbidopa + Entacapone1 is a Levodopa + Carbidopa + Entacapone2 precursor which gets converted to dopamine, a chemical messenger that controls movement in the brain. Carbidopa is a peripheral decarboxylase inhibitor which prevents the breakdown of Levodopa + Carbidopa + Entacapone1 allowing it to enter the brain and increase dopamine levels. Levodopa + Carbidopa + Entacapone3 is COMT inhibitor which causes higher and more sustained levels of levodopa in blood, leading to greater relief from the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease.
