일반 설명Benztropine mesylate,3α-(diphenylmethoxy)-1αH,5αH-tropane methanesulfonate(Cogentin), has anticholinergic, antihistaminic, and localanesthetic properties. Its anticholinergic effect makes it applicableas an antiparkinsonian agent. It is about as potent ananticholinergic as atropine and shares some of the side effectsof this drug, such as mydriasis and dryness of mouth.Importantly, however, it does not produce central stimulationbut instead exerts the characteristic sedative effect ofthe antihistamines.
