What KEMADRIN is used for

KEMADRIN contains the active ingredient procyclidine.

KEMADRIN is used to treat and relieve the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. KEMADRIN is also used to manage the side effects of neuroleptic medicines (used to treat serious mental illnesses). These side effects are quite similar to the symptoms of Parkinson's disease.

Common parkinsonian symptoms include shaking of the head and limbs, muscle stiffness, an expressionless face and being unable to start and control muscle movements properly. These symptoms are caused by an imbalance between the chemicals dopamine and acetylcholine in the brain. These two chemicals normally work in a balanced way, transmitting nerve signals in the part of the brain controlling movement. In Parkinson's disease, the amount of dopamine in this part of the brain is reduced, so the effects of acetylcholine are stronger, and coordination of muscle movement is lost.

Dopamine levels in the brain are abnormally high in people with some mental illnesses, e.g. schizophrenia. Treatment with neuroleptic medication reduces these high levels, sometimes to below normal. If this happens, the balance between acetylcholine and dopamine in the brain gets out of balance causing parkinsonian-like symptoms.

KEMADRIN belongs to a group of medicines called anticholinergics. KEMADRIN works by stopping brain cell receptors from binding with acetylcholine, which helps to restore the balance with dopamine.

KEMADRIN is not a cure for Parkinson's disease but can relieve some of its symptoms, especially muscle stiffness, trembling and drooling. It is also helpful for speech and writing problems, shuffling while walking, sweating, mental depression and unusual eye movements.

Your doctor may have prescribed KEMADRIN for another reason.

Ask your doctor if you have any questions about why KEMADRIN has been prescribed for you.

KEMADRIN is available only with a doctor's prescription.
