The active ingredient in Robinul, Robinul Forte, or Cuvposa is glycopyrrolate. It is an anticholinergic drug that inhibits the production of acetylcholine in the body. Like other anticholinergic agents, Robinul reduces acid production in your stomach by blocking acetylcholine, which helps to ease stomach ulcer symptoms.
