Dibazole has a direct relaxing effect on vascular smooth muscle, which can improve the symptoms of facial paralysis by dilating blood vessels in the brain and relieving ischemia of the brain and facial nerves. In the treatment of facial paralysis, the dosage of Dibazole is usually 5-10 mg, or one-half to one tablet, three times a day, which can improve the symptoms of crooked corners of the mouth and inability to close the eyelids.

Dibazole needs to be used under the guidance of a doctor and in strict compliance with medical advice, so as not to cause adverse effects.
