Gallic acid, a salt thereof or an ester thereof 'prferably administered orally as a treatment for involuntary movement disorders. This can be accomplished through the use of any of the usual pharmaceutical forms, in-' cluding solid and liquid unit oral dosage forms such as tablets, capsules, powders, suspensions, solutions, syrups and the like, including sustained release preparations. The term unit dosage form as used in this specification and the claims refer to physically discrete units to be administered in single or multiple dosage to humans, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active materials in association with the required diluent, carrier or vehicle. The quantity of active material is that calcu lated to produce the desired therapeutic elfect upon administration of one or more of such units in a single or multiple dose regimen.
Powders are prepared by comminuting gallic acid, a salt thereof or an ester thereof to a suitably fine size and mixing with a similarly comminuted diluent pharmaceutical carrier' such as an edible carbohydrate material as for example, starch. sweetening, flavoring, preservative, dispersing and coloring agents can also be present.
Capsules are made by preparing a powder mixture as described above and filling formed gelatin sheaths. A lubricant such as talc, magnesium stearate and calcium stearate can be added to the powder mixture as an ad juvant before the filling operation; a glidant such as colloidal silica may be added to improve flow properties; a disintegrating or solubilizing agent may be added to improve the availability of the medicament when the capsule is ingested.
Tablets are made by preparing a powder mixture, granulating or slugging, adding a lubricant and disintegrant and pressing into tablets. A powder mixture is prepared by mixing the compound, suitably comminuted, with a diluent or base such as starch, sucrose, kaolin, dicalcium phosphate and the like. The powder mixture can be granulated by wetting with a binder such as syrup, starch paste, acacia mucilage or solutions of cellulosic or polymeric materials and forcing through a screen. As an alternative to granulating, the powder mixture can be run through the tablet machine and the resulting imperfectly formed slugs broken into granules. The granules can be lubricated to prevent sticking to the tablet forming dies by means of the addition of stearic acid, a stearate salt, talc or mineral oil. The lubricated mixture is then compressed into tablets, the medicaments canialso be combined with free flowing inert carriers and compressed into tablets directly without going through the granulating or slugging steps. A protective coating consisting of a sealing coat of shellac,'a coating of sugar or polymericmaterial and a polish coating of wax can be provided. Dyestufl's can be added to these coatings to distinguish ditferent unit dosages.
Oral fluids such as syrups and elixirs can be prepared in unit dosage form so that a given quantity, e.g., a teaspoonful, contains a predetermined amount of the compound. Syrups can be prepared by dissolving the compound vin a suitably flavored aqueous sucrose solution while elixirs are prepared through the use of a non-toxic alcoholic vehicle. Suspensions can be formulated by dispersing the medicament in a non-toxic vehicle in which it is insoluble.
When utilized-alone, gallic acid, a salt thereof or an ester thereof is generally administered in a single or multiple dose regimen so that the patient receives a daily dose of from about mg./kg. to about 25 mgJkg. This range is however merely a guideline for in all cases the actual dose must be adjusted to the age, weight and condition of the patient and most importantly, titrated to the response observed. Thus, for example, for a human Ingredient:
' 'Whefi utiliied in conjunction with IrDOPA'therapy;
and then begin the administration of the gallic acid, salt,
or ester. In: this fashion, the required close of L-DOPA, which will vary from patient to patient, can be significantly reduced with, as described above, a significant reduction of elimination of side effects.
In the Practice of this method, one can employ gallic acid, a salt thereof or an alkyl ester thereof. The salts are those derived from alkali metals, alkaline earth metals or organic amines, such as the sodium, potassium, calcium and those of ammonia, ethylamine, triethylamine, ethanolamine, diethylarninoethanol, ethylenediamine, piperidine, morpholine, 2-(piperidino )-ethanol, benzylamine, procaine and the like. Esters are those derived from gallic acid and straight or branched chain alcohols having from 1 to 9 carbon atoms,-such as methyl gallate, ethyl gallate, n-propyl gallate, isopropyl gallate, n-butyl gallate, pentyl gallate, hexyl gallate, octyl gallate, nonyl gallate and the like. The preferred form of gallic acid for the practice of the present invention is the npropyl and n-butylesters.
The following examples will serve to further typify the nature ofthe present invention but should not be construed as a limitation thereof.
The lactose, corn starch and Cab-O-Sil are blended and granulated with an alcoholic solution of the stearic acid. This granulate is blended with the butyl gallate and the resulting blend is encapsulated in #0 capsules.

What is claimed is:
1. The method of treating involuntary movement disorders which comprises orally administering to a human suffering from such disorder in a single or multiple dosage regimen, a daily dose of from about 5 mg./kg. to about 25 mg./kg. of a compound of the formula:
HO 000R wherein R is hydrogen or alkyl of from 1 to 9 carbon atoms, or 'when R is hydrogen, a pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic alkali metal, alkaline earth metal or organic amine salt thereof.
