Why are anticholinergics used more often than Amantadine, for drug-induced Parkinsonism?
What the title says.
Anticholinergics have a burden on memory, and cognition in general.
While amantadine doesn't seem to.
However, almost every psychiatrist I know, use anticholinergics to avoid extrapyramidal symptoms.
