TabletsClinical Overview
Glycopyrrolate Tablets (1mg, 2mg) is an oral quaternary ammonium antimuscarinic on the PMBI formulary. It selectively blocks peripheral muscarinic receptors, markedly decreasing basal and stimulated gastric acid secretion and eliminating gastrointestinal smooth muscle spasm without causing central anticholinergic effects (confusion, sedation). Indicated as adjunctive therapy in peptic ulcer disease, severe sialorrhea (drooling), and spastic gastrointestinal disorders.
