Abstract
Purpose Administration of levodopa along with carbidopa increases the availability of dopamine in the mid-brain, and this combination thereby is used in the treatment of parkinsonism. However, concomitant delivery of levodopa with carbidopa in oral therapy is limited by several issues and an alternative route would be advantageous. The current study assesses the feasibility of co-administration of levodopa and carbidopa through skin using a drug in adhesive transdermal system.
