WHAT DISIPAL TABLETS ARE AND WHAT THEY ARE
USED FOR
The active ingredient in Disipal Tablets belongs to the group
of medicines called anticholinergic agents. Disipal Tablets
are used in the treatment of all forms of Parkinson’s disease,
a condition which can cause uncontrollable trembling of the
hands, and other difficulties of movement, for example in
standing or walking. Anticholinergic agents are also used
when other medicines have caused these problems.
