Selegiline hydrochloride is a medication used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease that selectively inhibits MAO-B, an enzyme that breaks down dopamine in the brain. This component helps regulate central nervous system function to improve motor skills.
Selegiline hydrochloride selectively inhibits MAO-B, the enzyme that breaks down dopamine in the brain. As a result, dopamine levels increase, leading to improved neural signaling and alleviation of Parkinson's disease symptoms.
Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.
Unlike non-selective MAO inhibitors, selegiline specifically inhibits only MAO-B, resulting in fewer side effects and a specialization in dopamine function. This characteristic distinguishes it from other MAO inhibitors.
