Levodopa


Dopamine-binding prodrug bioactivated by DDC


Reversible or irreversible inhibitor??

S(-)Carbidopa


A hydrazine-based DDC inhibitor that prevents conversion of L-DOPA to DA in the periphery.


Carbidopa does not cross the BBB


It is a substrate analog that irreversibly inactivates DDC in the periphery


Sinemet is form (comes in 1:10 ratio)

Amantadine


Multiple effects including enhancing release of DA from neurons and delaying reuptake

Reversible or irreversible??

Selegiline


Irreversible** MAO-B specific inhibitor


Methamphetamine prodrug (CYP N-dealkylated to methamphetamine > indirect inhibition of DA reuptake) - Reverses direction of flow with neurotransmitters released from vesicles into synaptic cleft


The propargylamine-derivatives selegiline and Rasagiline are mechanism based inhibitors that inactivate MAO-B through covalent adduction. The adducted target molecule is the FAD-coenzyme moiety of the enzyme

Rasegaline


Same MOA, but not prodrug

Reversible or irreversible drugs?
