Is benztropine mesylate a psychotropic?
Benztropine is an anticholinergic drug used to reduce the side effects of antipsychotic treatment, such as pseudoparkinsonism and dystonia. It is also a second-line drug for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. It improves tremor but not rigidity and bradykinesia. It is also sometimes used for dystonia, a rare disorder that causes abnormal muscle contraction. Although not a psychotropic medication, Benztropine is an anticholinergic medication, which works in re-establishing the balance of certain chemicals in the nervous system. Occasionally, healthcare providers may also prescribe Benztropine "off-label" to treat excess salivation ("drooling").
