Synamet Tablet 100 mg+10 mg is a combination medicine used in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease and Parkinson-like symptoms. It contains Levodopa 100 mg and Carbidopa 10 mg. This combination helps improve movement control, reduce stiffness, and decrease tremors in patients with dopamine deficiency in the brain.

Levodopa works by converting into dopamine in the brain, while Carbidopa helps increase the effectiveness of Levodopa and reduces its side effects in the body.
