Avert/Robinul and body temperature

Recently, my sweating is preventing me from a lot of things since temperature starts to rise here in Hong Kong, and in a matter of weeks I will be housebound would I not take any action.

I am thinking about ordering Robinul/Avert (an anticholnergic) from pharmacy.ca, but I am two minds about it since I suspect it could raise my heart rate and body temperature.

I do also suffer from blushing and flushing, something that could be worse if body temperature rises. (I think I was more prone to blush last year when taking Pro-Banthine, it could have been only in my mind though)

I have also read people saying their temperature will drop, and heart rate drop as well, when taking Avert/Robinul.

If you used this med, can you please tell me how did you react?!

Thanks

Oh I don't know about body temperature, but I'm working out daily and I don't know how that would work with glyco. I guess since I work in the morning and workout at night, I can take glyco in the morning to help with my sweating and at night just sweat normally at the gym. I guess that's healthier than just binging on glyco or working out while on it since as you mentioned your body retains heat.

Do not worry too much about working out on Avert - I worked out on Pro-Banthine before without problems. Actually, Pro-Banthine affected my workouts positively, because when I normally work out I will sweat so much it's crazy. Especially if playing football outside, or squash/gym without AC, I would literary just pass out when coming back home.

With Pro-Banthine I still sweated a lot, but more towards the "normal" amounts. I think it's important we all remember that those medicines is NOT to dry us up completely, but to make us sweat "normally."

Yes, I will indeed keep you updated redski. I know our symptoms are similar, so a successful remedy could might as well be.

I'm a longtime Avert user. When I exercise, my face does get red--might do that anyway, but more pronounced when you aren't sweating much. Kind of a trade-off--I take less of the med than I could and allow myself to sweat a little. Better than drowning!

California is so laid back, who is going to bust you?! You would not be carrying around multiple bottles of it when you go out. Maybe just 1-2 pills, or none at all since you'd probably take it first thing in the morning at home.

If you have insurance you should see a dermatologist to get a prescription for it. I think it's about $75 on pharmacy.ca, but I asked my dermatologist to prescribe it, and then I only had to pay $10 co-pay for it at the pharmacy. I also got the generic form (glycopyrrolate). It has been working really well overall.
