Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Glycopyrrolate 0.5 mg/ml Oral Suspension is a specially compounded medication designed to address a range of medical conditions. This medication is primarily used in the treatment of urinary incontinence, overactive bladder, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Additionally, it is utilized to manage excessive saliva production and to treat certain forms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

This oral suspension is a liquid dosage form where one or more ingredients are uniformly dispersed throughout a liquid medium. This ensures a homogeneous mixture for administration, making it easy to consume and rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream. The active ingredient, Glycopyrrolate, works by inhibiting the action of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for controlling the muscles of the bladder and gastrointestinal tract. By doing so, it effectively reduces the symptoms associated with these conditions.

Glycopyrrolate 0.5 mg/ml Oral Suspension is a appropriate treatment option for patients suffering from these conditions. It is crucial to adhere to the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider when taking this medication. If you have any queries or concerns regarding this medication, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Glycopyrrolate 0.5 mg/ml Oral Suspension is a compounded medication that is primarily used to manage and treat conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, and urinary incontinence. This medication functions by inhibiting the action of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that is released by nerves in the body and can trigger muscle spasms. By blocking the action of acetylcholine, glycopyrrolate aids in muscle relaxation and reduction of spasms.

This oral suspension is typically administered once or twice daily, depending on the specific instructions provided by your healthcare provider. It is crucial to adhere to these instructions and take the medication exactly as prescribed. Avoid taking more or less than the recommended dose. Consistency is key, so it is also important to take the medication at the same time each day to maintain a steady level of the drug in your system.

Like all medications, Glycopyrrolate 0.5 mg/ml Oral Suspension may cause side effects. Some of the most common side effects include dry mouth, constipation, and blurred vision.

However, it is important to remember that every patient's situation is unique, and what works best for one person may not work as well for another. Always consult with your healthcare provider to determine the best treatment plan for your specific needs. If you have any questions or concerns about this medication, do not hesitate to reach out to your healthcare provider for further information.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
