摘要:
Disclosed are methods for improving various aberrant metabolic indices in mammals including humans by administration of muscarinic (particularly M1) receptor antagonists alone or in combination with prolactin inhibiting compounds. Preferably the administration takes place at a predetermined time (or, if a combination of muscarinic receptor antagonist and prolactin inhibitor is used, at different predetermined times) during a 24-hour period when the administration is effective (or its effect more pronounced). The invention has application in the treatment of lipid and glucose metabolism disorders.
