Should people with PCS should avoid anticholinergic drugs?
Just saw this, not sure how new this finding is, but thought it might be of interest to some. Seems like it would be a good idea to steer clear of anticholinergic drugs, especially while experiencing symptoms. Basically the study found that use of anticholinergic drugs in normal older adults correlated with increased brain atrophy, hypometabolism, and cognitive performance. Some common anticholinergic drugs include Benadryl, Dramamine, and Paxil. Anticholinergic drugs block normal acetylcholine activity.
