I was going to post some questions about Levsin today. It is causing me terrible dry mouth, which is bad enough on its own, but it is also drying out my eyes something horrible. I had to take my contacts out half-way through the day today. I've also had funny headaches and perhaps some eye pain (I can't tell if it's headache or eye pain). I haven't had any nausea. That could be the IBS.

I don't think I'm going to take Levsin anymore.

I noticed in the ingredients on this medication that it contains some kind of sulfate. Is that the same kind of thing that's in sulfa antibiotics? I am allergic to sulfa drugs.

Does anyone know of an alternative to Levsin?
