Xafinact 50 Tablet contains safinamide as its active ingredient. Safinamide belongs to a class of medications known as monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B) inhibitors.

Here's how safinamide works in Xafinact 50 Tablet:

• Safinamide increases the amount of dopamine in the brain.
• It inhibits the breakdown of dopamine by blocking the action of an enzyme called monoamine oxidase-B (MAO-B).
• By maintaining higher levels of dopamine in the brain, safinamide helps improve motor function and reduces symptoms like difficulty in movement, walking, and speaking.
