Indications:
EXTRANIL 5 MG Tablet is indicated for the treatment of:

Parkinson’s disease (idiopathic, postencephalitic, arteriosclerotic)
Drug-induced extrapyramidal symptoms (e.g., pseudoparkinsonism, acute dystonic reactions, akathisia)

Pharmacology:
Procyclidine hydrochloride is an antimuscarinic antiparkinsonian agent that works by correcting the relative cholinergic excess occurring in parkinsonism due to dopamine deficiency. It helps in reducing tremors, rigidity, and bradykinesia associated with Parkinson’s disease.

Dosage:

Drug-induced extrapyramidal symptoms: Start with 2.5 mg three times a day. Increase by 2.5 mg per day as needed and tolerated.

Administration:
Take EXTRANIL 5 MG Tablet orally, preferably after meals. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not chew or crush the tablet.
