Difference between COMT inhibitor and Dopaminergic

COMT inhibitor vs. Dopaminergic

A COMT inhibitor is a drug that inhibits the action of catechol-O-methyl transferase. Dopaminergic means "related to dopamine" (literally, "working on dopamine"), dopamine being a common neurotransmitter.

Similarities between COMT inhibitor and Dopaminergic

COMT inhibitor and Dopaminergic have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase inhibitor, Catechol-O-methyltransferase, Entacapone, L-DOPA, Neurotransmitter, Parkinson's disease, Tolcapone.

Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase inhibitor

An aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase inhibitor (synonyms: DOPA decarboxylase inhibitor, DDCI and AAADI) is a drug which inhibits the synthesis of dopamine by the enzyme aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC, AAAD, or DOPA decarboxylase).
