Abbreviated New Drug Application
BENZTROPINE MESYLATE- BENZTROPINE TABLET REMEDYREPACK INC. ---------- BENZTROPINE MESYLATE TABLETS, USP DESCRIPTION Benztropine mesylate, USP is a synthetic compound containing structural features found in atropine and diphenhydramine. It is a crystalline white powder, very soluble in water, designated as 3α-(Diphenylmethoxy)-1αH, 5αH- tropane methanesulfonate, with the following structural formula: C H NO•CH O S MW 403.55 Each tablet, for oral administration, contains 0.5 mg, 1 mg or 2 mg of benztropine mesylate USP. Each tablet contains the following inactive ingredients: lactose anhydrous, micro-crystalline cellulose, colloidal silicon dioxide, sodium starch glycolate and magnesium stearate. CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Benztropine mesylate possesses both anticholinergic and antihistaminic effects, although only the former have been established as therapeutically significant in the management of parkinsonism. In the isolated guinea pig ileum, the anticholinergic activity of this drug is about equal to that of atropine; however, when administered orally to unanesthetized cats, it is only about half as active as atropine. In laboratory animals, its antihistaminic activity and duration of action approach those of pyrilamine maleate. INDICATIONS AND USAGE For use as an adjunct in the therapy of all forms of parkinsonism. Useful also in the control of extrapyramidal disorders (except tardive dyskinesia – see PRECAUTIONS) due to neuroleptic drugs (e.g., phenothiazines).
