General information

Artane belongs to a class of medication called anticholinergics that work by blocking a certain natural substance (acetylcholine). This helps decrease muscle stiffness, sweating, and the production of saliva, and helps improve walking ability in people with Parkinson's disease. It is also used to treat and prevent the same muscular conditions when they are caused by drugs such as chlorpromazine, fluphenazine, perphenazine, haloperidol, thiothixene, etc.

Directions

Take Artane exactly as prescribed by your doctor. The usual starting dosage for treating Parkinson's disease is 1 mg once daily. Your doctor may gradually increase your dose (by increments of 2 mg every three to five days) until your symptoms are controlled or up to a maximum of 15 mg total per day. It is recommended that the daily dose be split up into three smaller doses taken at meals, or if higher doses are taken (more than 10 mg total per day), into four smaller doses per day, at meals and at bedtime.
