| 5 | hyperhidrosis | The medication worked great for hyperhidrosis. I have experienced some odd side effects that I was hoping some others have experienced. For about two years I have had migraines on the right side of my head, and annoying muscle problems on the right side of my neck and right upper back. I also sometimes had racing heart and unexplained nervous shaking. All of those problems have vanished since beginning Robinul. It's like a godsend. Something was obviously amiss with something involving acetylcholine. Anyone else? | M | 3 months | 4/12/2008 | 5 | MENOPAUSAL HOT FLASHES AND NIGHT SW | NO SIDE EFFECTS | THANK GOODNESS FOR ROBINUL...I WAS ABLE TO SLEEP THROUGH THE NIGHT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN AGES. I WAS EXPERIENCING AS MANY AS 20 OR MORE HOT FLASHES IS A 24 HR PERIOD. THE FIRST DAY ON THIS MEDICATION I HAD 1. TODAY IS THE SECOND DAY AND SO FAR I HAVEN'T HAD ANY. I SURE HOPE IT CONTINUES TO WORK LIKE THIS, BECAUSE I REFUSE TO TAKE HORMONES AND I HAVE TRIED ALL THE NATURAL REMEDIES WITH NO SUCCESS. | F | 2 days | 4/24/2008 | 5 | Palmar & plantar HH | On 2MG I experienced really really dry mouth and dry eyes. It' was very difficult to wear contacts while using 2MG dose so I would wear my glasses. I decreased my dosage to 1MG every morning and my eye and mouth dryness is much bearable. Noticed this stuff causes my stomach to make strange noises and also regulates my digestion. | i've suffered from HH since I was 12 or that's as far back I can recall that I was conscious of it. I remember hot summer days at school with no a/c and my hands would leave imprints on the desk, it was so embarrassing. I was always conscious of the shoes I bought, always afraid of sliding out of sandals or heels or ruining the material from my constant sweating. I am 28 now and this stuff is LIFE CHANGING!! I wish I could've discovered this a long time ago. I suffered for so long and it's definitely affected my social life. Although Robinul is not a cure it works and it gives amazing relief! I will definitely be taking this for as long as I can. Going to keep spreading the word on HH boards about this stuff. | F | 30 days 1MG 1X day | 6/5/2015 | 4 | | 4/3/2004 | 3 | for dizziness | none | M | 5 years | 10/1/2007 | 5 | Hyperhidrosis | When I first started taking it, my mouth was really dry. Now it is fine and I experience no side effects. If I take twice what I usually take, my body gets jittery for about 45 minutes but gets better after that. | I take the generic brand called Glycopyrrolate. It is the same thing but it is cheaper and works great! This medicine has changed my life and I thank God for it! I suggest it to anyone who is tired of sweating messing up there lives! | F | 14 | 4.5 months 2 Mg 1X day | 6/10/2013 | 5 | Hyperhydrosis in feet and hands | When I first started taking it, my mouth and eyes got dry. I occasionally get a dry throat but it is 100% worth it. It doesn't even feel like I have hyperhydrosis anymore. This is such a miracle pill. | F | 15 | 3 weeks One 1mg | 5/16/2012 | 4 | Sweaty Hands | Dry mouth, dry nasal passages | I started by taking 2mg twice a day which had practically no effect and I have recentley upped my dose to 3mg twice a day, and 4mg when I know I will be having interactions of a nervewraking event which definatley helps! since upping my dose I have seen either not a drop of sweat all day or at the most, clammy hands! I've also been using 'Driclor' on my hands which I think has also helps however it does dry out my skin quite a lot so i dont use it all of the time. This is the best treatment I have recieved so far and I just hope it continues to work! Hope this helps! | F | 15 | 4 months 3mg 2X day | 6/22/2010 | 3 | sweaty hands,feet,armpits | sorta dry mouth, dry eyes | I've only been taking it for a week- 1mg twice a day. It has helped a little. Not extreme difference though. May up the dosage. I haven't really been able to wear my contacts though, because it makes my eyes so dry. Anyone w/ this problem sohuld try Robinul. | F | 15 | 1 weeks | 11/28/2008 | 5 | excessive sweating | My side effects are blurred vision sometimes, constipation, headaches, dry mouth.....i would take these side effects anyday to be able to have confidence and not be embarrassed...and not having to wear a jacket in the middle of summer to hide stains EVERYWHERE | F | 16 | 2 years 1mg day | 5/19/2013 | 4 | hypohidrosis | i didnt really have very many side effects mostly dry mouth and eyes, howevere during the summer months when it became hotter i would experience nose bleeds due to the medication drying me out. although i used nose drops to solve this. | since i have been taking robinul i now couldnt live without it. my life is so much easier now. i found it so hard before with socialising and exams etc. however i couldnt imagine copeing without it now!!! | F | 16 | 18 months | 1/2/2006 | 5 | underarm sweating | dry mouth | this is the greatest thing that has ever happened to me. finally i can wear/ buy something other than black. so so so happy. i have had this problem for 6 years now and have tried honestly everything from over the counter to botox and NOTHING worked. i had lost hope until i tried this medicine and it worked wonders. strongly recommend! | F | 17 | 7 days 2 mg 2X day | 2/15/2011 | 5 | Excessive sweating | Holy cotton mouth initially | The side effects are much worse when coming back to it after a break or just starting it alltogether on the max dosage, which if you want the full effect, do that. I was tired of having to deal with sweating during the day when there was definately no reason to, that's really what hyperhydrosis is and it WAS annoying. But this stuff really regulates things. First day of school for the year, it was atleast 70 degrees out, having taken one before bed and one in the morning I did not sweat at all, not even a little bit at all during the day. It was probably one of the best days of my life. It sounds sad but I live by this stuff, every single night before bed and every single morning before I leave for school. | M | 17 | 4 months | 1/23/2010 | 4 | Hyperhidrosis | In the first few months occasional headaches and dry mouth. Sometimes difficult to focus pupils. | Robinul gave me the ability to control my palmer and planter HH. It has literally saved my life and given me the confidence I need to interact socially. The side effects even at their worse were nothing compared to the fact I could write, touch and be "normal" around people. | M | 17 | 3 months | 12/18/2007 | 5 | Excessive Sweating | Horrible dry mouth in the beginning. After a couple months this side effect slowly became less and less. Now I don't really experience it. Headaches/Nausea/Blurred Vision ONLY WHEN TAKEN IN EXCESS. | This has been absolutely life changing! I found out about this drug and though hesitant, my doctor let me try it out. This pill makes my life so much better. Heres a piece of information that I tried to find when I first started taking this drug that I think is useful. This drug works when you take it, it doesnt take a week or two to get into your bloodstream. I don't even bother taking it when I'm not going out because I don't care if I sweat at home. Another thing is, this drug does not work well at all if you eat before or right after taking it. Try and take it at least an hour before eating for best results. Started out on 1mg twice a day and found slowly increased does till I found what worked best with me. Absolutely AMAZING! | M | 18 | 8 months 5mg 1X day | 12/21/2010 | 4 | Excessive Sweating | Occasional dry mouth/eyes, very mild drowsiness | I've been taking Robinul for a little over a half a year and the results have been impressive. I started with Hyperhidrosis (Of the hands, feet, face, and trunk) during adolescence and it only got worse as time went on. Not terribly noticeable during school but during sports and social events it became quite embarrassing. I started dosing on Robinul at 1mg twice a day, morning and night. It was fairly effective from winter into spring but summer made that dosage fairly ineffective. I take about 3-4mgs a day now during the summer, and while it's very helpful, I still sweat copiously. I still recommend this drug for anyone with mild Hyperhidrosis. And to the user who can't find the right dosage, you're just going to have to weigh the pros and cons and decide from there. Risk overheating a bit or the embarrassment of excessive sweating? | M | 18 | 7 months | 7/24/2009 | 3 | Anxiety, sweating | dry mouth, blur vision, headaches. | i asked my doctor for this after doing some research. i constantly sweated in anxiety situations and for just sitting at home. I took this for about 2 weeks. i took 1mg every morning. I latter went to my dermatologist for a acne issue and asked him about it, and he told me DETROL LA was better and had less side effects. i been taking this for a month and its a miracle, i recommend it to anyone who hates excessive sweating and wants a break through with no side effects. it doesnt have to control your life! DETROL LA!!! | M | 18 | 2 weeks | 1/20/2009 | 5 | Hyperhydrosis | Very dry mouth | My 19 yo son has been taking Robinul. He suffers from extreme facial and body hyperhydrosis. It makes his life just a nightmare. He handle's it well. I did the research on this site and found out about Robinul. Convinced our derm to prescribe it cause at first she would not. After trying 1-2 mg a day...not to much improvement. When he takes 3 at one time on an empty stomach...he see's big results. I would highly recommend this med to ANYONE suffering with this horrible condition! One has to try different doses to see what works. My son does say the the dry mouth is quite bad.... | M | 19 | 3 weeks | 9/17/2009 | 1 | terleme | Türkiye'de yok, yurtdışından almak istiyorum ama satın alabileceğim bir yer bulamadim. Türkiye'den alan biri nasıl yaptığını benimle paylaşabilir mi? | M | 19 | 1 days 2 2X day | 7/20/2023 | 5 | Hyperhidriosis (hands, feet, etc.) | Dry Mouth, dry eyes, dizziness | Robinul changed my life. I suffered from having sweating hands and feet my whole life. My friends and family used to always make fun of me. I was embarrassed to hold hands with girls I've dated. But ever since I started taking ROBINUL, the sweating immediately stop. It boast my confidence and made me feel good about myself. Yeah I get dry mouth and dry eyes from side effects but hey it's better than waking around dripping sweat and being afraid to shake your homeboys hands. I recommend Robinul to anyone who has Hyperhidriosis. I only take 2 MGs in the morning an hour before I eat and it covers me the entire day. | M | 20 | 7 days 2MG | 5/21/2016 |
ROBINUL (GLYCOPYRROLATE): Glycopyrrolate is a long term medication used to treat ongoing lung disease such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including chronic bronchitis and emphysema. It must be used regularly to reduce and prevent symptoms such as shortness of breath and wheezing. This may lead to a decrease in time lost from work due to COPD. This medication belongs to a class of drugs known as anticholinergics. It works by relaxing the muscles around the airways so that they can open wider to make breathing easier. Glycopyrrolate does not work right away and should not be used to relieve sudden breathing problems. If wheezing or sudden shortness of breath occurs, use your quick-relief inhaler as prescribed.
