Trihexyphenidyl 2mg primarily treats Parkinson’s disease symptoms. It helps manage tremors, rigidity, and bradykinesia (slow movement). This medication also finds use in managing extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS) caused by antipsychotic medications. These unwanted side effects can include muscle stiffness, spasms, and involuntary movements.
Furthermore, trihexyphenidyl can alleviate symptoms of drug-induced parkinsonism, a condition where medication causes symptoms resembling Parkinson’s disease. It’s also sometimes used to treat other movement disorders characterized by muscle rigidity and tremors, though this is less common.
Remember, this medication should only be used under the guidance of a physician. They will assess your specific medical history and determine the appropriate dosage and treatment plan.
