What is cholinergic and anti cholinergic drugs?

Cholinergic drugs are used for urinary retention, myasthenia gravis, glaucoma. Cholinergic drugs act like the neurotransmitter ACh (acetylcholine). Anti Cholinergic (also called Cholinergic blocking) drugs block the action of the ACh. Anti Cholinergic drugs are used foe pylorospasm & peptic ulcers, bladder overactivity, parkinson's disease


What is the purpose of cholinergic stimulants?

Cholinergic drugs are used for a variety of purposes, including the treatment of myasthenia gravis and during anesthesia.


How do cholinergic drugs control glaucoma?

Cholinergic drugs are also used in control of glaucoma, a disease that is caused by increased pressure inside the eye. The most common drugs used for this purpose are demecarium (Humorsol) and echthiophate (Phospholine iodide).


List the cholinergic drugs?

Anticholinergic drugs are substances used to help reduce and block the effects of acetylcholine. They are mainly used for the treatment of stomach cramps, motion sickness and ulcers. Some anticholinergic drugs include: Ipatropium Bromide Oxitropium Bromide Tiotropium Glycopyrrolate


What effects do cholinergic drugs produce?

Cholinergic drugs produce the same effects as acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is the most common neurohormone of the parasympathetic nervous system, the part of the peripheral nervous system responsible for the every day work of the body.


What are cholinergic stimulants?

they stimulate the action of ACh at post ganglionic muscarinic receptors.


What the antidote of atropine?

The antidote for atropine is physostigmine, a reversible inhibitor of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase. It increases the levels of acetylcholine at neurotransmitter junctions, counteracting the effects of atropine, which is an anticholinergic agent. Physostigmine is particularly effective in cases of atropine toxicity, helping to restore normal cholinergic activity in the body. However, it should be used with caution, as it can also lead to cholinergic side effects.

What drugs cause miosis?

Miosis is constriction of the pupil of the eye. Drugs that causes miosis are: Opioids (depressants) such as codeine, fentanyl, morphine, heroin and methadone. An exception with the opioids is the drugs Demerol (meperidine), instead of constricting the pupils, it is a mydriatic narcotic, it dilates the pupils of the eyes. Antipsychotics, including haloperidol, thorazine, olanzapine, quetiapine. Cholinergic agents such as those used to treat Alzheimer's disease and nerve gases; cholinergic drugs such as pilocarpine, carbachol (Miostat) and neostigmine As an F.Y.I. Cholinergic agent poisoning/overdose can be treated with anti-cholinergic agents such as atropine and scopolamine. Some cancer chemotherapy drugs, including camptothecin derivatives. Mirtazapine, a noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressant (NaSSA) Pscychoactive compound, trazodone. Some MAO Inhibitors (MAOI), which are some antidepressant drugs such as selegiline, rasagiline, procarbazine, and many more.


Is Wellbutrin an anti-cholinergic drug?

No, Wellbutrin (bupropion) is not an anti-cholinergic drug. It is primarily classified as an atypical antidepressant and is mainly used to treat depression and anxiety, as well as to aid in smoking cessation. Anti-cholinergic drugs block the action of acetylcholine in the brain and body, which is not the mechanism of action for Wellbutrin. Instead, Wellbutrin primarily affects the neurotransmitters dopamine and norepinephrine.


What drugs can be used to treat aphasia?

To date, no pharmacological treatments for aphasia have proven effective, although a number of drugs (dopaminergic, cholinergic, and neurotrophic) continue to be investigated, usually in conjunction with behavioral treatments for aphasia. Instead of drugs, many aphasia patients benefit from intensive speech therapy.
