Product Information

• Name: Rotigotine sulfate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Rotigotine is a drug that belongs to the group of pharmaceutical formulations. It is an unlabeled drug that has been shown to be effective in the treatment of depression. Rotigotine may be administered through a transdermal patch or by iontophoresis, which is a technique used to administer drugs through the skin. The mechanism of action is not known, but it may involve the inhibition of monoamine reuptake and/or alteration of intracellular levels of catecholamines. Rotigotine sulfate has a high affinity for dopamine receptors and increases plasma concentrations of dopamine by inhibiting its reuptake into presynaptic neurons. This leads to increased concentrations of dopamine in synaptic clefts and an increase in postsynaptic receptor binding.
