Abstract

Transdermal scopolamine patches (1.5 mg) were used to control drooling in a two-year-old boy with severe spastic quadriparetic cerebral palsy and developmental delay. He responded well to the continuous scopolamine therapy, with a decrease in drooling, and a secondary decrease in respiratory distress and frequency of suctioning. No significant side-effects were noted.
