Hi, I was prescribed artane but because of its side effects it gives me confusion and greatly reduces cognition. Is there ant anti tremor medication that does not induce confusion? Or all of them acts similarly?
What ap are you on
I had no confusion or cognitive symptoms from Benzatropine. Dr prescribed it for eyelid tremors and akathisia.
I heard good things about akineton (Biperiden).

Akineton is the med I had taken when I had akathisia. And I remember once the instructions were in italian.

Yes, very well. It was 3 and a half years ago. When I had first taken Amisulpride.

I take procyclidine, but I am trying to come off it. Is this a similar drug?
Don’t have those side effects with what I take, and I understand it to stop movement problems.
It has been treatment of choice for me for a few years - especially when I was on Haldol
