Trihexyphenidyl
Trihexyphenidyl is a centrally acting anticholinergic agent that blocks muscarinic acetylcholine receptors in the striatum, restoring dopamine-acetylcholine balance disrupted by nigrostriatal dopamine depletion in Parkinson's disease and drug-induced parkinsonism. It is used to reduce tremor, rigidity, and sialorrhea in Parkinson's disease and for treatment of extrapyramidal symptoms caused by antipsychotic medications. Its CNS anticholinergic effects can cause cognitive impairment, hallucinations, and confusion, particularly in elderly patients, limiting its use in modern Parkinson's disease management.
