How it works
This drug elevates the levels of a messenger chemical of the nervous system called dopamine. Enhanced dopamine levels improve a number of cognitive abilities. Managing Cushing's Disease has generally been focused on suppressing the adrenal glands production and excretion of cortisone, with significant potential for side effects. Selegiline has enabled the possibility of a direct suppression of the pituitary gland.
