Overview

Lazabemide is a **reversible and selective inhibitor of monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B)**, developed as an antiparkinsonian agent. Unlike selegiline, lazabemide is not metabolized to active compounds or amphetamines. By inhibiting MAO-B, lazabemide prevents the breakdown of dopamine, increasing its availability in the brain, which is relevant for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Lazabemide was specifically investigated for **delaying the need for levodopa therapy in early, untreated Parkinson's disease**. Clinical studies indicated its efficacy in delaying disability progression and showed good tolerability. The drug was never marketed and is considered an abandoned development project[6][8][3][5][1][7][9].
