Working of the drug:
Levodopa acts as dopamine and helps the brain to function normally. The Dopamine levels falls drastically when the persons becomes a Parkinson?s patient.
Carbidopa prevents the breakdown of Levodopa so that more of the drug is released in the blood stream.

It helps the brain to function better and is used to treat symptoms of Parkinson?s disease, such as stiffness, tremors, muscle spasms, and poor muscle control.
