Benztropine mesylate is a centrally acting anticholinergic and antimuscarinic agent primarily used in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease and drug-induced extrapyramidal symptoms. It is also employed as an adjunct therapy in dystonia and other movement disorders. This white to off-white crystalline powder has a CAS number of 132-17-2, with the molecular formula C21H25NO·CH3SO3H and a molecular weight of 403.5 g/mol. It should be stored at ambient conditions and handled with caution, as it carries a "Danger" signal word due to its toxicity. Molekula supplies Benztropine mesylate from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
