Interaction

Sympathomimetics and Steroids: In clinical studies, concurrent administration of glycopyrrolate and other drugs commonly used in the treatment of COPD including sympathomimetics (long and short-acting beta2 agonists), anticholinergics (short-acting anti-muscarinic antagonists), oral and inhaled steroids showed no increases in adverse drug reactions.Anticholinergics: There is a potential for an additive interaction with concomitantly used anticholinergic medications. Therefore, avoid unnecessary co-administration of glycopyrrolate with other anticholinergic containing drugs as this may lead to an increase in anticholinergic effects.
