About Manotrel 100mg Tablet

Manotrel 100mg Tablet is a prescription medicine used to treat the symptoms of Parkinson's disease, such as muscle stiffness, tremors, and shaky movements.

By helping to balance natural chemicals in the brain, it allows for smoother and more controlled physical activities.

For the best results, you must take Manotrel 100mg Tablet consistently at the same times every day as directed by your doctor.

How Manotrel 100mg Tablet Works

Manotrel 100mg Tablet contains amantadine. It works by altering the activity of certain chemical messengers in your brain that control muscle movement. In conditions like Parkinson's disease, there is a shortage of dopamine, a chemical essential for smooth coordination. This medicine increases the release of dopamine and prevents it from being reabsorbed, making more of it available to your brain cells. Additionally, Manotrel 100mg Tablet blocks a specific brain receptor known as the NMDA receptor. By blocking this receptor, the medicine helps reduce overactivity of glutamate, another brain chemical that can contribute to muscle stiffness and involuntary movements. This combined action helps restore balance in your brain's movement control centres, leading to steadier and more relaxed muscles.
