How Vacitane CH Products work
Chlorpromazine + Trihexyphenidyl is a combination of two medicines: Chlorpromazine + Trihexyphenidyl1 and Chlorpromazine + Trihexyphenidyl2. Chlorpromazine + 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). Chlorpromazine + Trihexyphenidyl2 is added to treat and prevent these side effects.
