Has anyone tried trihexyphenidyl, procyclidine or orphenadrine ? If so any help?

Dad has had some benefit from the hyoscine patches in terms of improving movement and speech at first, but now they just help with swallow mainly. The patch gives too much of a rash so we may give one of these a try, just thought I'd see if anyone else had tried? It is for Parkinson's really.

Yes, Tony had trihex.. when diagnosed at first with Parkinson's but stopped it after diag. with PSP - didn't seem to be making any difference anyway. Didn't seem to be any adverse reactions either.

Ah well, nothing ventured... I suppose everyone reacts to drugs differently don't they. Anything is worth a go!
