FAQs

Hindustan Atropine Injection 1 ml contains Atropine, which is used to treat bradycardia (slow heart rate). It works by blocking the activity of acetylcholine (chemical messenger). As a result, this helps to bring back the blood pressure within the normal range and relaxes the heart.

Dry mouth could be a side-effect of Hindustan Atropine Injection 1 ml. Limiting caffeine intake, avoiding smoking and mouthwashes containing alcohol, drinking water regularly, and chewing sugar-free gum/candy might stimulate saliva and prevent mouth drying.

Atropine may decrease sweating and make you more prone to heat stroke. Hence, it is advised to avoid becoming overheated or dehydrated during any physical activity and in hot weather.

Atropine is contraindicated in allergic reactions, urinary difficulties, elevated pressure in the eye (glaucoma), and stomach-related disorders like achalasia of the oesophagus, a blockage in the intestine (paralytic ileus) or acute form of colonic distension (toxic megacolon).
