Trihexyphenidyl medicine

Hi everyone!

Hope all is well and keeping safe at this current stage.

Quick question, anyone heard of the medicine above and have you used it?

Thanks guys x

Hi @Sasha and welcome back to the forum :wave:

Trihexyphenidyl (also known as benzhexol) is a type of drug called an anticholinergic. Anticholinergics are not commonly used to treat Parkinson’s but they can be used to help a noticeable tremor.

There’s lots more information about anticholinergics on our website that you might find useful.

You might also find it helpful to chat to the Parkinson’s nurses on our Helpline who can answer general questions about medications.

Warm regards,
