🧬 What is Selgin (Selegiline)?

Selgin 5 mg, manufactured by Intas Pharmaceuticals Ltd, is a potent monoamine oxidase-B (MAO-B) inhibitor that helps manage symptoms of Parkinson’s disease and is also used off-label in treating major depressive disorder as an adjunct therapy.

Selegiline works by inhibiting the breakdown of dopamine in the brain, improving motor control and reducing “off” episodes in patients already receiving levodopa/carbidopa therapy. It is also known for its potential neuroprotective properties, making it a key player in Parkinson’s disease treatment strategies.

Prescribed under the brand name Eldepryl in the US, Selgin is a cost-effective and reliable Indian alternative with global accessibility.
