Antan, also known as trihexyphenidyl hydrochloride, is an anti-tremor paralysis drug. The main pharmacological effects are to block the central cholinergic receptors, weaken the effect of acetylcholine in the substantia-striatal pathway, reduce the excitability of the reticulum-thalamus and thalamic-cortical projection systems, and exert anticholinergic and anti-tremor effects.
In neurology and psychiatry, it is mainly used for paralysis treminus (Parkinson's disease) and extrapyramidal reactions caused by psychotropic drugs, such as akathisia, acute dystonia, movement disorders, muscle and limb tremors, and eye turning (oculomotor crisis). Therefore, the probability of using Antan in psychiatry is higher.

Because sometimes doctors do not explain the role and purpose of Antan to patients and their families, many patients' family members have many misunderstandings about Antan, resulting in confusion in the process of taking medicine.
Myth 1: Antan is a sleeping pill. As the dose of psychotropic drugs increases, the psychiatric symptoms are reduced or disappear, and the patient's sleep improves or increases, and the patient sometimes mistakenly thinks that this is the credit of the psychotropic drug, and it also has the same "An" character as other sleeping pills.
In fact, this increase in sleep is mainly caused by the increase in the dose of psychotropic drugs to improve the condition, the patient's low tolerance to the drugs, and the prevention of extrapyramidal reactions by Antan, so the condition is relatively stable. In order to reduce the patient's sleepiness, some family members who think they are smart stop taking Antan without authorization, and as a result, there is a drug reaction, and the patient is anxious and difficult to sleep.
Myth 2: Why do "sleeping pills" not sleep. Some patients with anxiety and depression often have sleep disorders, or the patient's family members are worried about the patient's poor sleep and simply take Antan to solve the pain of insomnia.
Myth 3: Why is it painful and uneasy to stop taking Antan? Some patients have anxiety, nervousness, akathisia, increased muscle tone, ataxia, etc., which make the patient very frightened and distressed, which is caused by the loss of the side effects of Antan antagonistic psychotropic drugs.
Clinical work has also found that some patients who take Antan for a long time can produce dependence (mental or physical dependence), and once the drug is stopped, it can also cause nervousness, anxiety, fatigue, restlessness, depression, insomnia, sweating, etc., which is the withdrawal reaction of Antan.

When I was in the sixth grade, I got into a fight, probably because I was naughty, and I fell and hit the back of my head on the concrete floor. Later, after half a year, I fell ill, and after going to the hospital for examination, I was diagnosed with brain trauma and epilepsy, and I was prescribed a lot of medicines, so I began to take medicine for a long time. At first, I took imported medicine, and then by chance, the doctor helped me change to Jiyike levetiracetam tablets, and after taking it for a year and a half, I found that the effect was well controlled, and there were no more seizures, and then I stopped taking the medicine without authorization, and my mother also acquiesced, maybe she was busy at that time, and she didn't take this matter to heart. >>>More
