Robinul-Forte is the brand name for glycopyrrolate and is available as an oral tablet.

Robinul-Forte is available as a 1 mg and 2 mg oral tablet.

Robinul-Forte is an anticholinergic that is used as an add-on treatment for stomach ulcers.

Robinul-Forte belongs to a group of medications known as anticholinergics, which block a chemical in our body called acetylcholine. By blocking acetylcholine, Robinul-Forte lowers the amount of acid in your stomach and helps to relieve symptoms of stomach ulcers.

The typical starting dose is 1 mg by mouth three times daily. The maximum daily dose is 8 mg. Your healthcare provider will work with you to adjust your dose based on your symptoms and side effects.
