1. Products Description
KINTAI is committed to being your best supplier of L-dopa Powder, which is the precursor of dopamine. Most commonly, clinicians use levodopa as a dopamine replacement agent to treat Parkinson's disease. It can effectively control the obvious symptoms of bradykinesia in Parkinson's disease and is the most effective medicine to improve the quality of life of patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease. Levodopa is often prescribed to people with Parkinson's disease when symptoms become more difficult to control with other anti-Parkinson drugs. This drug is also used in post-encephalitic parkinsonism and symptomatic parkinsonism caused by carbon monoxide poisoning.
Recent data suggests that levodopa may slow the progression of Parkinson's disease and/or increase benefits even after stopping the drug. Common off-label uses of levodopa are for restless leg syndrome and periodic limb movement during sleep (PLMS). Levodopa has been suggested as a reasonable treatment option for patients with intermittent restless legs syndrome who do not require regular daily treatment.
Plant source: From the seeds of the leguminous plant Quinoa bean (Mucuna macrocarpa Wall).

2. Mechanism
Substantia nigra degeneration occurs in patients with Parkinson's disease. This condition leads to disruption of the nigrostriatal pathway, which reduces striatal dopamine levels. Different from dopamine dopamine, levodopa can cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Levodopa is converted to dopamine both in the central and peripheral nervous system. To increase the bioavailability of levodopa and reduce its side effects, it is often used in combination with peripheral decarboxylase inhibitors such as carbidopa and benserazide. Dopamine decarboxylase inhibitors prevent the peripheral conversion of levodopa to dopamine, thereby allowing more levodopa to cross the blood-brain barrier. Once converted into dopamine, it activates postsynaptic dopamine receptors and compensates for the decrease in endogenous dopamine.

5. Benefits and Application
Health Benefits
Indications: L-dopa Powder effect of improving myotonia and bradykinesia is obvious, and continuous medication is also effective for tremors, salivation, unsteady posture, and dysphagia.
1. Benefits for Parkinson's disease (primary parkinsonism)
Symptomatic parkinsonism after encephalitis or with cerebral arteriosclerosis and carbon monoxide and manganese poisoning of the central nervous system (non-drug parkinsonian syndrome). It can relieve the symptoms of Parkinson's paralysis improve muscle tone, and also make limb activities more normal. The effect is much more better for mild and moderate patients, and worse for severe or elderly patients.

2. Benefits for hepatic encephalopathy
Can wake up patients, and improve symptoms. Hepatic encephalopathy may be related to the abnormality of the central dopamine transmitter. After taking it, it can improve central function and work. Some people also believe that levodopa can improve the brain's tolerance to ammonia, but it cannot improve liver damage and liver function.
3. Relieve neuralgia
Early use can relieve neuralgia.
4. Treatment of hyperprolactinemia
It can inhibit thyrotropin-releasing hormone in the hypothalamus and excite prolactin-releasing inhibitory factor, thereby reducing prolactin secretion. It is used to treat hyperprolactinemia and has some effect on galactorrhea.

5. Hair Loss Treatment
Its mechanism may be to increase the concentration of catecholamines in the blood to the tissues, which promotes hair growth.
6. Promote the growth of children
It can accelerate the growth of children's bones by promoting the secretion of growth hormone.
Application
Primary Parkinson's Syndrome and Nonpharmacogenic Parkinson's Syndrome.
