Selegiline

Selegiline is a generic anti-parkinsonian medicine used to help manage symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. It is available in tablet form under brand names such as Elegelin 5 mg Tablet, Jumax 5 mg Tablet, Selerin 5 mg Tablet, Selgelin 5 mg Tablet, and Selgin Tablet 5 mg.

Selegiline works by helping preserve dopamine activity in the brain, which may improve movement-related symptoms. It should be used exactly as prescribed, because it can interact with certain medicines and foods; tell your healthcare provider about all prescriptions, over-the-counter products, and supplements you use.
