L-DAB HBr (L-Dihydroxyphenylalanine Hydrobromide), with CAS number 1758-80-1, is the hydrobromide salt of L-DOPA (L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine). L-DOPA is an amino acid precursor to dopamine and norepinephrine, neurotransmitters that play essential roles in the central nervous system. L-DAB HBr is used primarily in pharmaceuticals as a medication to treat conditions like Parkinson’s disease and dopamine-responsive dystonia. It is administered orally and crosses the blood-brain barrier to increase dopamine levels in the brain, alleviating motor symptoms associated with these neurological disorders. L-DAB HBr is a vital therapeutic agent in the management of these conditions, improving the quality of life for many patients.
