Atropine vs Cyclopentolate
 | Atropine |  | Cyclopentolate |  |
| This medication is used to decrease saliva and phlegm and to control stomach/intestinal spasms. This medication works by blocking the actions of a certain natural substance (acetylcholine) that your body makes. | This medication is used before eye examinations (e.g., refraction exams). It belongs to a class of drugs known as anticholinergics. Cyclopentolate works by temporarily widening (dilating) the pupil of the eye and relaxing the muscles of the eye. | |||

| Add Atropine review what about a salt increase in your body like for instance severe swelling in your feet and lower legs? I don't eat salt at all and am very swollen and trying to figure out what is making me this way! Any ideas? Please? Thanks! Actually, my condition makes it near impossible to spend any amount of time away from home without this medication. I am very happy with the results. | Add Cyclopentolate review Given to me for severe !! painful photophobia unrelieved with sunglasses and UV face shield. I am post op cornea transplant with wound dehisence. I am using 1drop a day for a few days then prn severe problem. I am an RN and Doc is trusting my careful use. I was given this to use for my corneal dystrophy in addition to other drops. I have to say that they do burn quite a bit for a few minutes after putting them in. I use them at night so any side effects are diminished when I wake up. I can see distance only after using the drops, as well. | |||
