Hi J
>It may be a dosing issue, but Cogentin is far more atropine-like for me
Akineton is believed to be a selective M1 antagonist whereas Cogentin is not.
>Plus its more lethargic-causing.
Cogentin seems to cause more lethargy than any of the other anticholinergics. Akineton causes drowsiness relatively frequenly too. Procyclidine and trihexyphenidyl tend to be more stimulating.
