MFDS ingredient code M279512
Dutetrabenazine is a medication that acts on the nervous system, primarily used to treat abnormal movement disorders such as Huntington's disease. This component helps improve motor control by regulating neurotransmitters.
Dutetrabenazine reduces the excessive release of neurotransmitters such as dopamine in the brain, thereby decreasing abnormal motor signals. This alleviates symptoms such as tremors or involuntary movements.

Unlike conventional tetrabenazine, dutetrabenazine has some hydrogen atoms replaced with deuterium, resulting in more stable and prolonged action in the body. This provides advantages such as reduced side effects and longer-lasting efficacy.
