I was hoping that Robinul would help with my sweating problems, but unfortunately I had to stop taking it on two occasions due to side effects.
The first time, I tried it for 3 days with 1mg each morning on an empty stomach & without food for about 2 hours. My sweating was not affected at all. I had some minor "medicated" feelings & dry mouth. However, the worst side effect was that my skin started to feel overly hot and almost burning on the 3rd day.
I decided to try another time. This time for another 3 days with 2mg each morning. My sweating was less this time around however the "medicated" feelings & dry mouth were pretty bad. One morning I tried to eat a muffin and it was like a sponge in my mouth. I couldn't even swallow it. The thing that was the worst though once again was the burning skin sensation. Both times this didn't really start taking effect until the 3rd day.
I'm disappointed, and I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this burning feeling since I haven't seen it described anywhere as a side effect. I know there are other classes of anticholinergics though, although I'm afraid that they will still have the same effect.
