2 Dosage and Administration 2.1 General Administration Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever solution and container permit.

Titrate based on heart rate, PR interval, blood pressure and symptoms. 2.2 Adult Dosage Table 1: Recommended Dosage 2.3 Pediatric Dosage Dosing in pediatric populations has not been well studied. Usual initial dose is 0.01 mg/kg to 0.03 mg/kg. 2.4 Dosing in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease Limit the total dose of atropine sulfate to 0.03 mg/kg to 0.04 mg/kg [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. For intravenous administration. (2.1) Titrate according to heart rate, PR interval, blood pressure and symptoms. (2.1) Adult dosage - Antisialagogue or for antivagal effects: Initial single dose of 0.5 mg to 1 mg. (2.2) - Antidote for organophosphorus or muscarinic mushroom poisoning: Initial single dose of 2 mg to 3 mg, repeated every 20 to 30 minutes. (2.2) - Bradyasystolic cardiac arrest: 1 mg dose, repeated every 3 to 5 minutes if asystole persists. (2.2) Patients with Coronary Artery Disease: Limit the total dose to 0.03 mg/kg to 0.04 mg/kg.

5 Warnings and Precautions 5.1 Tachycardia When the recurrent use of atropine is essential in patients with coronary artery disease, the total dose should be restricted to 2 mg to 3 mg (maximum 0.03 mg/kg to 0.04 mg/kg) to avoid the detrimental effects of atropine-induced tachycardia on myocardial oxygen demand. 5.2 Acute Glaucoma Atropine may precipitate acute glaucoma. 5.3 Pyloric Obstruction Atropine may convert partial organic pyloric stenosis into complete obstruction. 5.4 Complete Urinary Retention Atropine may lead to complete urinary retention in patients with prostatic hypertrophy. 5.5 Viscid Plugs Atropine may cause inspissation of bronchial secretions and formation of viscid plugs in patients with chronic lung disease. Tachycardia. (5.1) Glaucoma. (5.2) Pyloric obstruction. (5.3) Worsening urinary retention. (5.4) Viscid bronchial plugs. (5.5)

7 Drug Interactions 7.1 Mexiletine Atropine sulfate injection decreased the rate of mexiletine absorption without altering the relative oral bioavailability; this delay in mexiletine absorption was reversed by the combination of atropine and intravenous metoclopramide during pretreatment for anesthesia. Mexiletine: Decreases rate of mexiletine absorption. (7.1) Revised: 8/2024

13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility Studies have not been performed to evaluate the carcinogenic or mutagenic potential of atropine or its potential to affect fertility adversely.

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are risks to the mother and fetus associated with untreated severe or life-threatening muscarinic events (see Clinical Considerations). Available data from published observational studies on atropine sulfate use in pregnant women are insufficient to evaluate for a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes (see Data) . Animal developmental and reproductive toxicity studies have not been conducted with atropine. Clinical Considerations Disease-Associated Maternal and/or Embryo/Fetal Risk Severe or life-threatening muscarinic events such as acute organophosphate poisoning and symptomatic bradycardia are medical emergencies in pregnancy which can be fatal if left untreated. Life-sustaining therapy for the pregnant woman should not be withheld because of concerns regarding the effects of atropine on the fetus. Data Human Data Atropine crosses the placenta [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. No adequate and well-controlled studies are available regarding use of atropine in pregnant women. In a cohort study of 401 pregnancies in the first trimester and 797 pregnancies in the second or third trimester, atropine use was not associated with an increased risk of congenital malformations. In a surveillance study, 381 newborns were exposed to atropine during the first trimester; 18 major birth defects were observed when 16 were expected. No specific pattern of major defects was identified. In another surveillance study of 50 pregnancies in the first trimester, atropine use was not associated with an increased risk of malformations. Methodological limitations of these observational studies including the inability to control for the dosage and timing of atropine exposure, underlying maternal disease, or concomitant maternal drug use, cannot definitively establish or exclude any drug-associated risk during pregnancy.

8.4 Pediatric Use Recommendations for use in pediatric patients are not based on clinical trials.

8.5 Geriatric Use An evaluation of current literature revealed no clinical experience identifying differences in response between elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy.

6 Adverse Reactions The following adverse reactions have been identified during post-approval use of atropine sulfate. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. Most of the side effects of atropine are directly related to its antimuscarinic action. Dryness of the mouth, blurred vision, photophobia and tachycardia commonly occur. Anhidrosis can produce heat intolerance. Constipation and difficulty in micturition may occur in elderly patients. Occasional hypersensitivity reactions have been observed, especially skin rashes which in some instances progressed to exfoliation. Most adverse reactions are directly related to atropine’s antimuscarinic action. Dryness of the mouth, blurred vision, photophobia and tachycardia commonly occur with chronic administration of therapeutic doses.

10 Overdosage Excessive dosing may cause palpitation, dilated pupils, difficulty in swallowing, hot dry skin, thirst, dizziness, restlessness, tremor, fatigue and ataxia. Toxic doses lead to restlessness and excitement, hallucinations, delirium and coma. Depression and circulatory collapse occur only with severe intoxication. In such cases, blood pressure declines and death due to respiratory failure may ensue following paralysis and coma. The fatal adult dose of atropine is not known. In pediatric populations, 10 mg or less may be fatal. In the event of toxic overdosage, a short acting barbiturate or diazepam may be given as needed to control marked excitement and convulsions. Large doses for sedation should be avoided because central depressant action may coincide with the depression occurring late in atropine poisoning. Central stimulants are not recommended. Physostigmine, given as an atropine antidote by slow intravenous injection of 1 mg to 4 mg (0.5 mg to 1 mg in pediatric populations), rapidly abolishes delirium and coma caused by large doses of atropine. Since physostigmine is rapidly destroyed, the patient may again lapse into coma after one to two hours, and repeated doses may be required. Artificial respiration with oxygen may be necessary. Ice bags and alcohol sponges help to reduce fever, especially in pediatric populations. Atropine is not removed by dialysis.
