Answer:
Hyoscyamine may cause side effects. Tell your doctor if any of these symptoms are severe or do not go away:
* drowsiness
* dizziness or lightheadedness
* headache
* blurred vision
* flushing (feeling of warmth)
* dry mouth
* constipation
* difficulty urinating
* increased sensitivity to lightIf you experience any of the following symptoms, call your doctor immediately:
* diarrhea
* skin rash
* eye pain
* fast or irregular heartbeat
One of the common adverse reactions to hyoscyamine is palpitations and a less common adverse reaction is tachycardia. The half-life is 3-5 hrs. The med is metabolized in that time and excreted in urine. Contact your doctor's office and speak to the doctor on call. I think you can discontinue this med but you need to be sure and you need to know if there's anything else that should be done for you. Get off the computer and on the phone.
