PRODUCT DETAILS
About Nuhexy 2mg Tablet
TRIHEXYPHENIDYL belongs to a group of medicines called anti-spasmodic agents used as an adjunct to treat Parkinson’s disease and extrapyramidal symptoms (drug-induced movement disorders). Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder in which the first signs are problems with movements.
TRIHEXYPHENIDYL contains ‘trihexyphenidyl’ which works by relaxing the muscles and nerve impulses that control muscle functioning. Besides this, TRIHEXYPHENIDYL also balances chemical messenger called neurotransmitter in our brain thereby improving muscle control and reduces the stiffness, thereby helps the muscles move naturally.
