Rasalect 0.5 Tablet contains Rasagiline (0.5 mg). Here's how it works:

• MAO-B Inhibition: Rasagiline is an irreversible inhibitor of an enzyme called monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B). This enzyme plays a crucial role in breaking down dopamine in the brain.

• Increased Dopamine Levels: By inhibiting MAO-B, rasagiline helps increase the level of dopamine in the brain. More dopamine means better control over movements, which helps manage symptoms of Parkinson's disease.

Although the exact process by which rasagiline improves Parkinson's symptoms is not fully understood, these mechanisms play a significant part in its action against the disease.
