Poldine

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Poldine is a type of anticholinergic medication used to treat a variety of conditions. It is also known by its generic name, Poldine Methylsulfate.

Uses[edit | edit source]

Poldine is primarily used to treat conditions such as gastrointestinal disorders, urinary incontinence, and hyperhidrosis. It works by blocking the action of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that sends signals in the nervous system. By doing this, Poldine can help to reduce muscle spasms and excessive sweating.

Side Effects[edit | edit source]

Like all medications, Poldine can cause side effects. These can include dry mouth, blurred vision, and constipation. In rare cases, it can also cause more serious side effects such as confusion, hallucinations, and difficulty urinating.

Interactions[edit | edit source]

Poldine can interact with other medications, including other anticholinergics, certain antidepressants, and some antihistamines. It is important to tell your doctor about all the medications you are currently taking to avoid potential interactions.

Precautions[edit | edit source]

Before taking Poldine, it is important to tell your doctor if you have any other medical conditions, especially those related to the heart, liver, or kidneys. It is also not recommended for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding without consulting a healthcare professional.
