<h3>What is the treatment of Parkinson's related symptoms?</h3>

One of the common chronic degenerative disorders of the neurological system is Parkinson's disease (PD). There is presently no cure for Parkinson's disease, however, a range of medications can help manage the motor symptoms. While these medications can significantly enhance motor function, they may also have unfavorable side effects, especially as the disease worsens.

Parkinson's patients can take several anticholinergic medications, such as trihexyphenidyl, benztropine, orphenadrine, procyclidine, and biperiden. Anticholinergics function by inhibiting but not activating the acetylcholine receptors on nerve cells. This counteracts the impact of increased acetylcholine and counteracts the impact of decreasing dopamine levels.

Anticholinergics frequently cause dry mouth, urine retention, constipation, and an accelerated heart rate as side effects.
