| Description: | DEFDOPA Tablet is a combination of Levodopa 100mg and Carbidopa 25mg, used in the management of Parkinson’s disease and related movement disorders. Levodopa is converted into dopamine in the brain, helping to restore the deficient neurotransmitter responsible for movement control. Carbidopa inhibits the peripheral breakdown of Levodopa, ensuring more Levodopa reaches the brain, thereby improving efficacy and reducing side effects like nausea. This combination helps improve motor symptoms such as tremors, stiffness, and slowness of movement in patients with Parkinson’s disease. |
