I've been prescribed Atropine Sulf 1% Ophth Ointment for an eye condition, and I'm a bit nervous about the side effects. I've heard people say it works wonders for some, while others have had terrible experiences. I'd love to hear from anyone who has used this ointment. How did it affect you? Did you experience any of the severe side effects, or were they just minor inconveniences? Also, any tips on how to manage the side effects would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for sharing your stories!

I recently got prescribed Atropine Sulfate 1mg/ml Inj, 1ml. I know it's used in emergencies to help with heart rate, secretions, and muscle relaxation, but I'm a bit concerned about the side effects. I've read about severe ones like allergic reactions and hallucinations, and it makes me nervous. But I also know that many people might experience only minor side effects. Can anyone share their experiences with this medication? Are the serious side effects as common as the list makes it sound, or is it mostly minor stuff like dry mouth and blurred vision?
