Hi Everyone,
I've been taking Levodopa for sometime to curb my resting hand tremors in my left hand. Lately the tremors are increasing to point where I consulted with my doctor for alternatives to take. I was prescribed to take Trihexyohenidyl with my Levodopa which I read has numerous side effects such as confusion. I am very hesitant to try as I am concerned of the negative side effects and what it will create while I'm out with friends or at work.
Is anyone taking this and if so… read more
Leon doesn't have side effect with 2 mg Trihexyphenidyl, Artane, everybody is different though.
Everyone reacts differently. That being said my husband had horrible hallucinations after about 5 days on it. He saw people coming out of the walls, children playing in the house and strangers in our barn. Thankfully he learned quickly that if they didn't talk back they weren't real. He started at a low dose and we stopped the medication 3 weeks in. The hallucinations have stopped.
