I have tried to split the pills but they are so small, also I found that a half works about half as long. I am completely lost with out my propantheline . I hope they never stop making them or all of us are going to have to do battle with the drug co.....ha ha!

I know it works real well for me too. I'm not a doctor, but have been a quad for over 34 years. So, I feel the need to give you a bit of caution... Sweating and rapid heart rate--heart beating hard are a quad's '6th sense'...pain sensory and is a part of dysreflexia... I cut my 15mg propantheline in half. That way, I can see if I can stop the sweating w/out my mouth drying out too bad and w/out my heart beating too hard. If I feel ok, but am still sweating after a bit, I take the other half. Please be careful b/c what you're dsaying about your heart beat could be a recipe for disaster. I'm only saying this b/c I know that feeling. Please consiider 1/2 a pill.

I mean buckets. A few people here mentioned Propantheline. I tried it and it worked great. I took 15mg. The only issues I had was dry mouth for a few hours and my heart beat hard for just a bit. I really hope it continues to work well, it is so much better. I just pop one before I start. Thanks everyone for the tip. Greg
