Inhaled Medicines: Past, Present, and Future

A review of the key aspects of approved orally inhaled drug products for a variety of respiratory diseases and for systemic administration should be helpful in making judicious decisions about the development of new or improved inhaled drugs.

Limited Systemic Exposure with Topical Glycopyrronium Tosylate in Primary Axillary Hyperhidrosis

These studies indicate limited absorption of GT compared to oral glycopyrrolate and a low risk of anticholinergic adverse events with proper GT administration when following instructions for use.

Compounded glycopyrrolate is a compelling choice for drooling children: five years of facility experience

This study demonstrates the efficacy of a compounded glycopyrrolate syrup on drooling severity, frequency and ensures a better QoL in patients and their caregivers.

Survival study of treatment adherence by patients given oral glycopyrrolate for hyperhidrosis following treatment failure with oral oxybutynin

The main variables associated with treatment adherence by patients receiving OGly, for whom previous treatment with OOx had failed, were identified and provided valuable insights into the outcomes achieved when OGly is used to treat hyperhidrosis.

Topical anticholinergic medications for primary hyperhidrosis: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis

Evaluating systemic and topical safety and tolerability of topical application of anticholinergics for PHH and analysis of evidence for the efficacy and toleration is limited.

Drug–Drug Interactions in Vestibular Diseases, Clinical Problems, and Medico-Legal Implications

This review searched articles published until 30 August 2021, and described both pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic DDIs in patients with vestibular disorders, focusing the interest on their clinical implications and on risk management strategies.

ANTICHOLINERGIC DRUGS IN THE TREATMENT OF FACIAL HYPERHIDROSIS: A REVIEW ARTICLE

Based on the available evidences, topical glycopyrrolate, oxybutynin and botulinum toxin A should be considered as first-line therapies of facial hyperhidrosis due to their efficacy and safety.

Hyperhidrosis: A Review of Recent Advances in Treatment with Topical Anticholinergics

This review shows that while available safety data thus far are limited, emerging topical anticholinergics pose minimal known human risks.

Current and emerging treatments targeting the neuroendocrine system for disorders of the skin and its appendages

Recent progress in synthetic drug development of compounds targeting neuroendocrine signalling in the skin and its appendages to treat skin diseases such as atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, acne, alopecia areata and hyperhidrosis is focused on.

Pharmacologic Mydriasis Secondary to Topical Glycopyrronium Tosylate Cloths: Clinical Characterization From a Multicenter Analysis

Mydriasis associated with topical GT seems to be a consequence of local exposure rather than systemic toxicity, and soft contact lens wear and poor postapplication hand hygiene seem to be associated with mydriasis in GT use.

Comparison of systemic exposure to glycopyrronium in Chinese versus the non-Chinese population did not indicate clinically relevant ethnic differences and the pharmacokinetic steady state was reached after 5 days of daily dosing.

Safety of available and emerging drug therapies for hyperhidrosis

Efficacy and safety data on aluminum salts, anticholinergic drugs for topical or systemic application, and on intradermal botulinum toxin injections used to treat hyperhidrosis are critically evaluated, including data from clinical trials with focus on possible side effects and long-term complications in dispute.

Comparative Penetration of Glycopyrrolate and Atropine across the Blood—Brain and Placental Barriers in Anesthetized Dogs

It is shown that glycopyrrolate is a selective peripheral anticholinergic agent, in that it is more resistant than atropine to penetration across the blood—brain and placental barriers.
