Product Overview

Akiniton Tablets 1mg is a Japanese-manufactured antiparkinsonian medication containing biperiden hydrochloride, an anticholinergic agent. It is used to treat Parkinson’s disease symptoms and certain drug-induced movement disorders (extrapyramidal side effects). Akiniton works by acting on the central nervous system to improve tremors, muscle stiffness, and slow movement, helping patients regain better muscle control and reduce involuntary movements. Manufactured in Japan under strict pharmaceutical regulations, this trusted treatment is known internationally (under the brand name Akineton) for its effectiveness in managing Parkinson’s disease and medication-induced motor side effects.

Dosage Guidelines

• Typical Adult Dosage: Begin with 1 tablet (1 mg) taken twice daily. The dose may be gradually increased up to 3–6 tablets per day (divided into multiple doses) as needed and directed by your physician.
• Follow Medical Advice: Always take Akiniton exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not change your dosage or stop taking the medication without consulting your healthcare provider, as they will adjust the dose according to your specific condition and response.
• Administration: Take the tablet with a glass of water. It can be taken with or after meals to reduce stomach discomfort, but follow any specific instructions given by your doctor or pharmacist.

Possible Side Effects

• Common Side Effects: Like other anticholinergic medications, Akiniton may cause dry mouth, blurred vision, drowsiness, dizziness, constipation, or difficulty urinating. These side effects are usually mild. If they persist or become bothersome, inform your doctor.
• Serious Side Effects: Rarely, more severe reactions can occur, such as confusion, hallucinations, fast heartbeat, or allergic reactions (e.g. rash, trouble breathing). Although uncommon, if you experience severe symptoms or any sudden changes in your condition, seek medical attention immediately.
• Precautions: Because Akiniton can cause drowsiness and blurred vision, use caution when driving or operating machinery until you know how it affects you. Avoid overheating, as reduced sweating may occur, and stay hydrated, especially in warm weather.

FAQ

Q: What should I do if I miss a dose of Akiniton?

A: If you forget to take a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it’s almost time for your next scheduled dose. If your next dose is near, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to catch up. Missing an occasional dose may reduce the medication’s effectiveness temporarily, but just resume your normal schedule and continue as directed. If you have any concerns, consult your doctor for advice.
