Atropine may cause dizziness, drowsiness, or blurred vision. If you experience dizziness, drowsiness, or blurred vision, avoid these activities. Use alcohol cautiously. Alcohol may increase drowsiness and dizziness while you are taking atropine. Avoid becoming overheated in hot weather.
Atropine increases the risk of heat stroke because it causes decreased sweating.
Other, less serious side effects may be more likely to occur. Side effects other than those listed here may also occur. Talk to your doctor about any side effect that seems unusual or that is especially bothersome. Many other drugs may increase the side effects of atropine. Tell your doctor if you are taking digoxin so that your digoxin levels can be monitored and changes in your dosage can be made if necessary.
