In high dosage, anticholinergics may decrease the effects of levodopa by delaying its GI absorption. .

              Angioedema of the face, lips, tongue and/or larynx reported (including with 1st dose); if involvement of the tongue, hypopharynx, or larynx occurs promptly discontinue; promptly provide appropriate therapy and/or measures necessary to ensure a patent airway function

              Administer with caution to patients with clinically significant bladder outflow obstruction or gastrointestinal obstructive disorders due to risk of urinary or gastric retention; use with caution in patients with conditions such as ulcerative colitis, intestinal atony, and myasthenia gravis

              To administer, must carefully monitor patients with controlled narrow-angle glaucoma; benefits should outweigh risks

              Somnolence reported; advise patients not to drive or operate heavy machinery until they know how therapy affects them

              Drug substantially excreted by kidney; effects of moderate renal impairment on systemic exposure are not known but systemic exposure is likely increased; risk of anticholinergic adverse reactions (including dry mouth, constipation, dyspepsia, urinary tract infection, and urinary retention) is expected to be greater in patients with moderate renal impairment

              C: Use with caution if benefits outweigh risks. Animal studies show risk and human studies not available or neither animal nor human studies done.

              D: Use in LIFE-THREATENING emergencies when no safer drug available. Positive evidence of human fetal risk.

              X: Do not use in pregnancy. Risks involved outweigh potential benefits. Safer alternatives exist.

              Pharmacology

              Mechanism of Action

              Reduces the smooth muscle tone of the bladder by antagonizing the effects of acetyl choline on muscarinic receptors.

              Pharmacokinetics

              Absorption: <10%; reduced when administered with high-fat meal

              Half-life: 20 hr (immediate release)

              Peak plasma time: 5-6 hr

              Protein bound: 45-85%

              Metabolism: Not fully elucidated; major pathway is thought to be ester hydrolysis followed by glucuronide conjugation of benzylic acid

              Renal clearance: 29.07 L/hr

              Excretion: Feces (85.2%); urine (5.8% with 60% unchanged drug)
