Glycopyrrolate topical (glycopyrronium cloth) is used on underarm skin to treat excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) in adults and children who are at least 9 years old.

Glycopyrrolate topical may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.

Follow all directions on your medicine label and package. Tell each of your healthcare providers about all your medical conditions, allergies, and all medicines you use.

Follow all directions on your prescription label and read all medication guides or instruction sheets. Use the medicine exactly as directed.

Apply only to clean, dry underarm skin. Do not use on open wounds or broken skin.

Do not cover treated skin with a bandage or with plastic.

Use a single glycopyrrolate topical cloth on both underarms once every 24 hours. Then throw the cloth away.

Wash your hands after handling a glycopyrrolate topical cloth. Any medicine left on your hands could cause blurred vision if you later touch your eyes.

Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat.

Keep each cloth in the sealed pouch until it is time for you to apply the medicine.

Glycopyrrolate cloths are flammable. Do not use near high heat or open flame.
