Abstract
Heart rate, demeanor, and facial flushing following intramuscular injection of atropine or glycopyrrolate were compared in 80 paediatric patients under 1 year of age. No significant differences occurred between the two drugs in the doses used. Neither was there any difference in drug response between those children aged under 2 months and the other patients in the study.
