jlo, I forgot to ask, you may know.... I'm not on any anti-psychotics, however I, for some reason, get a "restless leg" type syndrome at night often when i try to go to sleep. My doctor gave me Cogentin to help this. Does this sound right to you? Does this sound right to anyone? Any feedback would be great.
Thanks
gal
> Cogentin, or benztropine, is an anticholinergic used to combat the movement side effects of anti-psychotic medications. It is also used in the treatment of Parkinson's Disease. It improves muscle control and decreases the stiffness and tremors.
