I've just started using Atropine Sulf 1% Oph Soln 5ml eye drops to treat my son's lazy eye (amblyopia). The doctor said this is a common treatment to help strengthen the weak eye by blurring the vision in the stronger eye. I'm concerned about the potential side effects, especially the urgent ones. Has anyone else used these eye drops? What were your experiences with side effects? Did you experience any of the more serious side effects like allergic reactions or high blood pressure? How did you handle them? Any advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated!

Atropine Sul 0.4mg/ml Inj, 20ml is a medication commonly used in urgent situations to address a slow heart rate, dry up excessive body fluids before surgery, or counteract poisons. By inhibiting the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, Atropine helps regulate heart rate and manage certain types of poisoning. The side effects can range from mild to severe, and it's essential to be aware of both. I've been curious about other people's experiences with this medication, especially in emergency scenarios. How common are the side effects, and how do medical professionals manage them? Do you have any personal stories or insights to share?

How long did it take for you to see improvements? I'm also a bit concerned about the side effects, especially the urgent ones. Anyone have any advice on managing these or knowing what to look out for? Thanks in advance!
