My two cents as a C.G. layman is:
   a) check with the drug package insert for all such information, i.e.
chemistry, pharmacology,
       adverse reactions, etc., etc.
   b) verify with a competent neurologist who is a movement disorder
specialist, and then
        listen to him/her.  The specialist is far better equipped to
answer your questions than
        we are.

Good luck, and good titer!
