How dose and regimen impact levodopa bioavailability

Joaquim Ferreira, MD, PhD, University of Lisbon, Lisbon, Portugal, discusses the long-standing use of levodopa as a standard treatment for Parkinson's disease and highlights the ongoing gaps in knowledge about its optimal dosage and administration. Despite being the most effective and safe drug available for Parkinson's disease management over the past 60 years, there is still much to learn about its usage. Prof. Ferreira shares recent data from a trial comparing different doses and regimens of levodopa when used in combination with a COMT inhibitor such as opicapone.
