Description

Indications

This combination medication is employed to alleviate symptoms associated with Parkinson’s disease, such as tremors, stiffness, and difficulty in movement. Levodopa undergoes conversion into dopamine within the brain, aiding in the regulation of movement. Benserazide serves the purpose of inhibiting the breakdown of levodopa in the bloodstream, allowing more levodopa to enter the brain. Benserazide can also mitigate some of the side effects associated with levodopa, such as nausea and vomiting. This combined action helps improve the management of Parkinson’s disease symptoms.

Uses and Dosage

Take this medication by mouth with food as prescribed by your doctor, usually 4 to 6 times a day. Swallow the capsules whole; do not open or dissolve them in liquid.

Avoid a high-protein diet during treatment unless otherwise instructed by your doctor, as it can decrease the absorption of levodopa in your body. Space your doses of this medication as far apart as possible from any iron supplements or products containing iron (such as multivitamins with minerals) you may take, as iron can reduce the absorption of this medication. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more information.

The dosage is determined based on your medical condition and response to treatment. To minimize the risk of side effects, your doctor may instruct you to initiate this medication at a low dose and gradually increase it. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully.

Some patients may experience a “wearing-off” effect, indicating a worsening of symptoms before the next dose is due. An “on-off” effect may also occur, characterized by sudden short periods of stiffness. If these effects happen, contact your doctor for potential dose adjustments to alleviate this phenomenon.

Do not discontinue this medication without consulting your doctor, as some conditions may deteriorate when the medication is abruptly stopped. Additionally, sudden cessation may lead to withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety, depression, confusion, fever, and muscle stiffness. To prevent withdrawal, your doctor may gradually reduce your dose. Withdrawal is more likely if you have been using this medication for an extended period or in high doses. Notify your doctor or pharmacist promptly if you experience withdrawal symptoms.

Use this medication consistently to derive the maximum benefit. To aid in remembering, take it at the same times each day.

Inform your doctor if your condition does not improve or if it worsens.

  • This medication may cause dizziness or drowsiness. The use of alcohol or marijuana can intensify these effects. Refrain from driving, operating machinery, or engaging in activities requiring alertness until you can do so safely.
  • This medication must not be used during pregnancy as it may harm an unborn baby. You should prevent pregnancy while taking this medication.
