<ol><li>What is (product_name) used for? (product_name) is primarily used to manage symptoms of Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders such as tremors and stiffness. It is also used to treat drug-induced extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS) caused by antipsychotic medications.</li><li>Is Trihexyphenidyl the same as Benzhexol? Yes, trihexyphenidyl and benzhexol refer to the same medication. Benzhexol is the brand name used in some countries, while trihexyphenidyl is the generic name. Both are used to treat Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders, as well as to manage drug-induced extrapyramidal symptoms.</li><li>Why is Trihexyphenidyl given with Risperidone? Trihexyphenidyl is used alongside risperidone to manage extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS) such as tremors and stiffness, which can occur as side effects of risperidone. Risperidone, an antipsychotic, may disrupt the balance of neurotransmitters in the brain, leading to these movement disorders. Trihexyphenidyl, an anticholinergic, helps to counteract these symptoms by restoring neurotransmitter balance. The combination allows for effective management of psychiatric conditions while reducing motor-related side effects. Always use these medications under the guidance of a healthcare provider.</li><li>How fast does Trihexyphenidyl work? Trihexyphenidyl typically starts to show effects within a few hours after taking the medication, but it may take several days to a few weeks to achieve the full benefit, particularly for managing symptoms of Parkinson’s disease or drug-induced extrapyramidal symptoms. The onset of action can vary depending on the individual and the specific condition being treated. For immediate relief from acute symptoms, some people may notice improvements sooner, but consistent use is important for optimal results. Always follow your healthcare provider's recommendations for dosage and timing.</li><li>Does Trihexyphenidyl increase dopamine? Trihexyphenidyl itself does not directly increase dopamine levels in the brain. Instead, it works as an anticholinergic agent, which means it blocks the action of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that can interfere with dopamine's effects. In conditions like Parkinson’s disease, where there's an imbalance between dopamine and acetylcholine, reducing acetylcholine’s activity helps to alleviate symptoms by allowing dopamine to function more effectively. Thus, while trihexyphenidyl does not increase dopamine levels directly, it helps in managing symptoms related to dopamine imbalance.</li><li>What is the price of (product_name)? The price of (product_name) can vary depending on the country, the pharmacy, and whether you’re purchasing a brand name or generic version. In Singapore, the cost for a typical prescription of trihexyphenidyl (such as the 2mg tablets) ranges from approximately SGD 10 to SGD 30 for a month’s supply. For the most accurate and up-to-date pricing, it's best to check with local pharmacies or consult your healthcare provider.</li><li>How can I make payment? You can make payments using various methods, including credit/debit cards, online banking, and e-wallets. Specific payment options will be available at checkout.</li><li>Is it safe to buy (product_name) online? Yes, it is safe to buy (product_name) online from our store. We ensure that all products are genuine, properly stored, and securely packaged. Additionally, we use secure payment gateways to protect your information.</li><li> Any promotions or vouchers I can use? We frequently offer promotions and vouchers. Please check our website's promotions page or subscribe to our newsletter to stay updated on the latest offers.</li><li>Can I send medicine from Malaysia to Singapore? Yes, you can send medicine from Malaysia to Singapore. Please ensure that the medicine is legally allowed for import into Singapore and complies with both countries' regulations.</li></ol>
