What the FDA labels say
From the Ipratropium (Atrovent HFA) label · effective 2025-11-05
Avoid administration of ATROVENT HFA with other anticholinergic-containing drugs ( 7.1 )
Therefore, avoid coadministration of ATROVENT HFA with other anticholinergic-containing drugs as this may lead to an increase in anticholinergic adverse effects [ see Warnings and Precautions (5.4 , 5.5) ].
From the Trospium (TROSPIUM CHLORIDE) label · effective 2026-08-05
Trospium chloride extended-release capsules, like other antimuscarinic agents, may decrease gastrointestinal motility and should be used with caution in patients with conditions such as ulcerative colitis, intestinal atony and myasthenia gravis.
The concomitant use of trospium chloride extended-release capsules with other antimuscarinic agents that produce dry mouth, constipation, and other anticholinergic effects may increase the frequency and/or severity of such effects.
