Selegiline (Eldepryl, Movergan, Zelepar), also known as deprenyl, is an antioxidant drug that blocks monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B), an enzyme that degrades dopamine. Until recently, selegiline was the drug most commonly used in early-onset disease and in combination with levodopa for maintenance. A major 2002 study reported, however, that although selegiline delays the need for L-dopa by a few months, it has no effect on long-term progression.
