Interventions

DRUGOpicapone 50 mg

The recommended dose of opicapone is 50 mg. Opicapone must be taken once a day before going to bed, at least one hour before or one hour after levodopa combinations. As opicapone enhances the effects of levodopa, it could be necessary to adjust levodopa dose by extending the dosing intervals and/or reducing the amount of levodopa per dose within the first days to first weeks after initiating treatment with opicapone.
