In 2003 a group in Switzerland published some case studies showing that this anticholinergic is effective in reducing this common SE of methadone.

Biperiden is not in BNF

Any ideas what it is?

Nigel, not sure that helps.

Hi Simon, previously replied on an old thread - the link you kindly posted was the report I was shown recently, Nigel

I've had a look at the old thread.... just wondering if any of you lovely people know of any other medication that can help with this issue???

There was also another thread but I can't seem to find it.
I have used the antiperspirant 'Driclor' but it's no use if you are sweating everywhere. You can buy it from a pharmacy or get it on prescription. I can't say it is of that much use. It seems some people sweat more on higher doses and lowering the dose sometimes helps - but at what cost?
