Frequently asked Questions about Pacitane Tablet (30)
Question over 3 years ago
How does Pacitane work?
Dr. Kishan Barnwal MBBS , General Physician
Pacitane contains trihexyphenidyl which is an anticholinergic drug that works through correcting the chemical imbalance in the brain by blocking the action of a chemical messenger (neurotransmitter acetylcholine). Blockage of acetylcholine actions results in relaxation of smooth muscles which helps in improving the muscle control and reducing stiffness. In this way, Pacitane provides relief to the patient from the symptoms of parkinsonism.
