Cogentin (active ingredient: benztropine) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:
Cogentin belongs to a class of drugs known as anticholinergics, which work by blocking the action of acetylcholine in the central nervous system, thereby alleviating symptoms associated with Parkinson’s disease and drug-induced extrapyramidal disorders.
Benztropine is available as a tablet to be taken orally, typically 2 to 4 times a day with meals and at bedtime, or as a single dose at bedtime. Benztropine should be taken with food or milk to reduce the risk of stomach upset. It should be taken at the same time each day to maintain an even level of the drug in your system.
Take this medication as prescribed by your doctor, as the dosage may need to be adjusted depending on your age, medical condition, and response to the medication. Your doctor may start you on a low dosage and gradually increase it to ensure you are taking the most effective dose for your individual needs.
For Parkinson’s disease, the typical dosing for Benztropine (Cogentin) is 0.5 mg to 6 mg taken orally once or twice a day. For extrapyramidal symptoms, the recommended dosage is 1 mg to 4 mg taken orally once or twice a day. Your doctor may start you at a lower dose and gradually increase it to ensure that you are taking the most effective dose for your individual needs.
Cogentin (Benztropine) is available in the following forms and strengths:
There is no limit to how long you can take benztropine (Cogentin). Many people continue to take benztropine (Cogentin) as long as they benefit from the medication and do not experience side effects.
It usually is taken at bedtime. It is usually taken once daily but may be taken up to four times a day depending on your symptoms. Take benztropine at around the same time(s) every day.
The usual daily dose is 1 to 2 mg, with a range of 0.5 to 6 mg parenterally. As with any agent used in Parkinsonism, dosage must be individualized according to age and weight, and the type of Parkinsonism being treated. Generally, older patients and thin patients cannot tolerate large doses.
After you have been taking benztropine on a regular basis, stopping it suddenly may trigger uncomfortable withdrawal effects such as irritability, nausea, vomiting, headache, or difficulties sleeping. Do not suddenly stop taking this medication; first, discuss it with your doctor.
