It is a dopamine precursor, meaning it is converted into dopamine in the brain, which helps to reduce the symptoms of Parkinson's. Levodopa is usually taken in combination with other drugs, such as carbidopa, to increase its effectiveness. It is one of the most commonly prescribed drugs for Parkinson's, and is often the first line of treatment. Levodopa is a part of the larger Central Nervous System (CNS) drug market, which includes drugs used to treat a variety of neurological disorders.
