How Manodol Products work

Haloperidol + Trihexyphenidyl is a combination of two medicines: Haloperidol + Trihexyphenidyl1 and Haloperidol + Trihexyphenidyl2. Haloperidol + Trihexyphenidyl1 is a typical antipsychotic. It works by blocking the action of a chemical messenger (dopamine) in the brain that affects thoughts and mood. However, it may cause side effects such as involuntary movements (shaking of hands, muscle spasms). Haloperidol + Trihexyphenidyl2 is added to treat and prevent these side effects.
