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.    (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 5  hyperhidrosis Dry mouth/ eyes. I just got on Robinul and I am very impressed with the results. I had ets 10 years ago to treat Palmar hyperhidrosis (helped somewhat but symptoms returned). Still would sweat excessively in hot/humid environments. Botox treatments were certainly effective but expensive, administratively difficult, and treat only the area applied. With Robinul I took 2mg on an empty stomach in the morning for a few days with no effect, then ramped up to 4mg. For the past two days on 4mg I haven't had a drop of sweat all day. Not even mild clamminess. I'm in disbelief. Side effects were dry mouth and slightly dry eyes. But I just sip water all day and don't even notice it. I'm going to scale down the dosage back to 2mg to see if that works now that I've been on it for a few days. If 2mg is still not effect I'll try 3mg and then back to 4mg. But, wow, wish I tried this stuff earlier... If I just needed to treat hyperhidrosis in one area and money was not an issue, I'd prefer botox to Robinul. Otherwise, I strongly suggest anyone suffering from Hyperhidrosis give Robinul a try. M 27

 5  Hyperhidrosis Dry mouth, but it seemed to get better as time went on. I read up on this before I took it and I too noticed people calling it a miracle drug. Well, they're right. Like any medicine, some people won't do well on it or it just won't work, but it did for me. I've been suffering from embarrassing head and face sweating for years. It affected me in every aspect of my life. I wasn't able to socialize like I wanted to and it was just plain humiliating being in a room, inside, and all of a sudden break out into a sweat like I had been doing yard work. I tried Botox. Twice. It got rid of, for a while, my frown lines but did nothing for my sweating. I went to the dermatologist, and he said he wished I had come to him before spending so much money on Botox. He said Robinul has a good success rate. To make a long story short, I started taking it, and at first, was taking it twice a day. I read where one guy had success taking three pills once a day so I tried that. It is amazing. I still sweat, but now, it's like a normal person sweats. I don't sweat for no apparent reason, and when I do, it stops when I go inside where it's air conditioned. Before, once I started sweating, it was like someone turned on the hose and left it running. It has made a difference for me. I no longer sweat at night. I am dry, dry, dry!! You have to play with the dosage to see what works for you. The dry mouth got better after a few weeks but to me, I would rather have a dry mouth than look like a sweaty pig all the time. Plus, it helped me up my M 35

 5  hyperhydrosis over my entire body I have suffered from excessive sweating over my entire body for years. It prevents me from doing normal daily activities. I will sweat in 40 degree temps. I never wear a coat. Drying my hair proves to be very troublesome as it never gets dry. After pleading with my Dr. For help, She prescribed ROBINUL. Today is my first day on the medication. I have been on the internet reading reviews of the product. I am hearng nothing but raves. I am so excited for it to start working. I just want to live a normal life without the worry of my hair going flat and my make up running down my face. Wish me luck and ill see Ya at the gym! F 51 1 days

 5  Craniofacial Hyperhidrosis Dry eyes & mouth I have dealt with craniofacial hyperhidrosis for years now. The worst has always been the back of my head...my hair would be drenched even if I was just at a social event, shopping at a store or at work. It's always been so embarrassing & it interferes with every aspect of my life. It's hard to feel feminine & enjoy date night with my hubby when my hair is literally soaked from sweating. I was taking oxybutynin on & off for the last few years because despite feeling drugged & totally spaced out on it, it helped a little for a couple hours. Today I started glycopyrrolate (Robinul) & I haven't stayed this dry in a loooong time! I'm used to the dry mouth from taking the other med, but I felt alert all day & could function! I took 2 mg this morning on an empty stomach (I don't usually eat breakfast anyway) & my head/face has been dry all day. Amazing! I totally recommend this for hyperhidrosis! F 37 1 days

 3  Plantar HH headache thus far Well after reading this forum - i am highly impressed on how many people have had such a high success rate? My primary focus is for my feet for a mild/moderatae case of plantar HH. My question is can anyone tell me how many days it took for any results and the amount of milligrams they have been taking. I am hoping that someone will respond as this has somehwat destroyed my confidence. By the way, as it is the first day - my hand are already dry - but I have been taking a liquid called formalaz which does help - but wears off after four hours. This works well with my both the hands and feet - but I am more interested in the success rate for the feet. So far I have had a few reactions, but not anything I will can not handle. Again if anyone can e-mail me regarding this that would be great. Thanks for taking the time to read my post. M 30 1 days

 2  Severe facial hyperhidrosis more sweating It's only my first day taking this, but I am disappointed that the first reaction to the medication is more sweating than before. I hope this is just the initial reaction and that it works as it has for others after I've taken it for a week or so. Otherwise, there's no hope for me. F 33 1 days

 1  Stomach pain Left me extremely dehydrated for almost 24 hours afterwards, could not drink enough water, cotton mouth, sped up my heart rate Was given to me in the ER, shot my heart rate up to 145. They had to follow it up with a blood pressure medication just so I could sit still again. The cotton mouth and dried-out feeling it left me with for the rest of the day was AWFUL. F 24 1 days

 5  Underarm Sweating Slight Dry Mouth I have had severe underarm sweating for as long as I can rememeber. I am a 26 yr old female. My whole wardrobe is black shirts and shirts that don't show sweat. I honestly pour water on shirts before I buy them to do a "sweat test." I have let my sweating problem decide my life for me. I thought there was no help since I tried all the prescription deoderants and home remedies. I did some research and found Robinul. Yesterday was my first day and I started with 1mg twice a day. I didn't see any results. So today, I took 2mg this morning and I will take 1mg this evening. For the 1st time in my life, I have on a bright pink shirt with short sleeves!!!! AND NO SWEAT!!!!!!!! I am 100% thankful that I found this pill!!! F 26 2 days

 1  Ulcers - 7 stomach ulcers 48 hours after starting Robinul,I began to experience EXTREME difficulty with URINATING. In fact, at times it seemed almost impossible to go at all. I also began a little bit of itching. I stopped the Robinul then and there. Woke up the next morning covered in a RASH that got worse as the day progressed. By the end of the day I was covered from head to toe. Started Benadryl and that didn't even help one bit. Now, six days later, the rash has not gotten worse - but neither has it gotten better. I am able to urinate normally, but the rash is painfully itchy and not responding to traditional treatment of Benadryl and cortisone creme, so it's off for another costly doctor visit and I guess maybe a round of steroids - which I amleery about with all these ulcers. This drug produced a very bad reaction with me and I take several drugs for anxiety and ulcers. I have never had an allergic reaction to anything. Beware of Robinul. F 49 2 days

 5  craniofacial hyperhidrosis dry mouth, but can be resolved with hard candy or gum(sugar free, of course) very minimal blurred vision I have had this condition since I was in my pre-teens, but never knew what it was. I remember standing in front of our church during childrens hour one time and was drenched in sweat and could not understand why, I walked out and of course my mother came behind me and put me in the car and turned on the A/C, that was the most embarrassing time of my life. From that time on, I have dealt with this issue until now and I am 40 years old. I have been told by others I must have a thyroid issue, went to the doctor, no tyhroid, you must be overweight, getting my diet and weight under control, so I decided to do some research myself and one day researched on "head and facial sweating" and boy did the word hyperhidrosis flood my screen. After reading these stories and doing the research on the drug, I ran to my doctor to get his opinion and he agreed. Even my doctor had told me, "oh it is just nerves and anxiety", keep yourself calm. How could I do that when I had a overexcessive nerve that would flare up and cause excessive sweating when under stress or in social environments. I work in the technology sector and I have been in Data Centers working on servers and dripping sweat and others have coats on. I travel a good amount also and in this day of post 9/11, I get looked at oddly all the time, but since having this drug, I can say THANK YOU JESUS! I have only been taking the drug for a few days, but have noticied a change already. I expect to travel next week a M 40 3 days

 5  hyperhidrosis No side effects except slightly dry mouth in morning I've had a significant problem with year-round face, head and chest hyperhidrosis (even indoors) since I was a teenager. I've tried everything. Nothing worked until I found Robinul. I'm using the generic. I started at 1mg and didn't see much difference. 2 mg helped a little. 3 mg is perfect and I am dry all day. Amazing and yes ... life-changing. I live in Central Texas and it is very hot and humid here during the summer. F 55 3 days

 5  hyperhidrosis dry mouth I've been suffering with hyperhidrosis ever since I was born. I had the surgery to repair my sweaty palms which worked great but it caused compensatory sweating which has been a nightmare. I sweat on my back, face, groin, legs etc. I finally decided to take Robinul and I can see a HUGE difference in my body already. I live in Houston where the temperatures get up to 105 degrees. I have not had any sweating issues over the past few days which is a miracle. So far all I have to do is take 1mg and it lasts all day. F 30 3 days

 5  Severe Hyperhidrosis Dry mouth, dry eyes, minor headache I have only been taking Robinul for 3 days now, and I have to say, I recommend it to anybody that has mild to severe Hyperhidrosis. I am so suprised on how fast and well this medicine works. I have had it for about 4 years now, and have tried every treatment out there besides the ETS surgery, which I have tried my hardest to stay away from. I would consider my Hyperhidrosis on a scale of 1-10 being the worst, as a 10. I was hesitant on taking Robinul because of the side effects, but to me, dryness of mouth and eyes (which is not very bad) is alot better than my hands, feet, armpits, and facial sweat. Anybody that has Hyperhidrosis knows how big of an impact it has on your emotional and physical self being. I don't think I will go another day without taking Robinul! F 20 3 days
