How Benzhexol Works

Benzhexol works by blocking the effects of acetylcholine — a chemical that becomes overly active in conditions like Parkinson’s disease. By restoring balance between acetylcholine and dopamine in the brain, it helps control tremors, stiffness, and other involuntary movements, improving coordination and mobility.
