[Preliminary open multicenter study on the anti-tremorigenic effectiveness of bornaprine (Sormodren)].

Abstract

Out of 1500 patients suffering from tremor of diverse origin, reliable data on 521 were selected for analysis. The drug was given for over two months (mean daily dose 8 mg) and effectively reduced all kinds of tremor by an average 50%. The only side-effects occurring with any frequency were dryness of the mouth and constipation. The data collected show bornaprine to have a beneficial effect on all types of tremor.
