Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Robinul Work?

  • Blocking acetylcholine at muscarinic receptors, which reduces the activity of the parasympathetic nervous system. This action leads to decreased secretions from glands such as salivary, bronchial, and sweat glands.
  • Relaxing smooth muscle in the gastrointestinal tract, which can alleviate symptoms associated with gastrointestinal spasms.


Common Dosages

  • Oral tablets: Common strengths include 1 mg and 2 mg.
  • Injectable solution: Usually available in a concentration of 0.2 mg/mL.

Typical Dosing

  • For excessive salivation: The typical oral dose for adults is usually 1 mg to 2 mg taken 2 to 3 times daily, as needed.
  • For preoperative use: The injectable form is commonly administered about 30 to 60 minutes prior to surgery to minimize secretions.


Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Reduction of excessive salivation in patients with conditions that cause this symptom.
  • Preoperative medication to reduce salivation and respiratory secretions.
  • Management of peptic ulcers in combination with other treatments.

Who Shouldn't Take Robinul?

  • Known hypersensitivity to glycopyrrolate or any components of the formulation.
  • Glaucoma (particularly narrow-angle glaucoma).
  • Myasthenia gravis, or conditions where inhibition of acetylcholine is contraindicated.


Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Instruct patients on the importance of adhering to the prescribed dosing schedule and the proper method of administration for either oral or injectable forms.
  • Advise patients to be cautious when engaging in activities that require alertness, as Robinul can cause drowsiness or blurred vision.
