How it works

Dystonil 2mg Tablet is an anticholinergic medication. It works by decreasing the activity of a chemical messenger (acetylcholine) in the brain. This improves muscle control and reduces stiffness in Parkinson's disease. It also improves movement disorder (restlessness, involuntary movements or muscle spasm) caused by certain other medicines.

Quick Tips

Dry mouth may occur as a side effect. Frequent mouth rinses, good oral hygiene, increased water intake and sugarless candy may help. It may cause dry eyes. Avoid wearing contact lenses and inform your doctor if it bothers you. It may cause dizziness and sleepiness. Do not drive or do anything requiring concentration until you know how it affects you. Monitoring of intraocular pressure is required while taking this medicine as an increase in eye pressure may cause blurry vision. Inform your doctor if you suffer from glaucoma or if you have trouble passing urine.
