Cholinergic Crisis: Over-stimulating of nicotinic receptors can cause muscle weakness and paralysis by the excessive intake of. Anticholinesterases which are (indirect drugs) Over-stimulation of nicotinic receptors will lead to its blockage instead of further activation.

Anti-muscarinic q Atropine (Hyoscyamine) • Alkaloids obtained from Atropa Belladona, Considered as prototype for parasympatolytics q Hyoscine (Scopolamine) • • Obtained from Hyocyamus niger plant (Datura Stramonium) Note: Antihistamines, phenothiazides and some antidepressants have antimuscarinic effects
Clinical pharmacology of antimuscarinic drugs Mechanism of action: Reversible blockade of M receptors Exocrine glands are most sensitive Gastric secretion is the least affected Heart is intermediate Note: Atropine blocks all 3 subtypes receptors (M 1, M 2, M 3)
Pharmacokinetics Absorption: § Natural and most tertiary amines: good § Wide distribution and cross BBB § Quaternary amines: poorly absorbed and poor crossing BBB (Ipratropium) q Atropine t½: 2 hrs q Partly metabolized and partly excreted unchanged q
Pharmacodynamics q Exocrine • • • glands: at low doses reduced secretions Salivary Bronchial Sweet glands
CNS Central stimulant effects (Atropine) Some may produce sedation (Hyoscine) Hyoscine blocks M receptors in vomiting centre and has anti-emetic effect Toxic doses: hallucination, convulsion, coma
Eye §Mydriasis (dilatation of pupil) §Cycloplegia (relaxation of the ciliary muscle) cause: blurred vision and impaired accommodation to near vision §Decreased lacrimation §Increase IOP
CVS Depending in the doses Central effect: § Decrease heart rate Peripheral effect: § Blockade of vagus nerve and increase heart rate ABP: § No change
Respiratory system Bronchodilatation Reduced bronchial secretion Ipratropium (quaternary amine derivate of Atropine) inhalation: ◦ Useful in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), also in patient who are unable to take adrenergic agonists.
GIT Decrease salivation Decrease acid secretion Decrease motility Delay gastric emptying Prolong intestinal transit time Anti-diarrhoeal and anti-spasmodic effects
GUT Relaxation of bladder wall Useful in inflammatory spasm and pains of the urinary tract Risky in patients with BPH (Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy)
Therapeutic uses CNS disorders: Parkinson’s disease Drug-induced parkinsonism as Phenothiazine (induced acute dystonias: sustained contraction of muscles leading to twisting, distorted postures) Benztropine, Benzhexol: useful Motion sickness: Hyoscine oral, injection, transdermal patches
Therapeutic uses Ocular uses: In eye examination (Tropicamide) produce mydriasis and cycloplegia In iritis (Atropine eye drop) prevent synechia (adhesion of the iris to the lens) Note: Atropine eye drops effects: 7 days Tropicamide eye drops effects: 4 -12 hrs
Therapeutic uses Premedication: Hyoscine and Atropine (use as adjunct in anaesthetic procedure) Bronchial asthma: Ipratropium inh. (produce bronchodilatation) Cardiovascular: Bradycardia and heart block Atropine following AMI:
Therapeutic uses GI disorders: Anti-diarrhoeal • Lomotil= atropine + diphenoxylate Anti-spasmodics (in intestinal colic, irritable bowel syndrome) • Atropine, hyoscine, clidinium, prifinium. Urinary disorders: Urinary urgency with UTI Renal colic
Therapeutic uses Cholinergic poisoning as: • Irreversible CEI insecticide poisoning • Chemical warfare intoxication. To counteract muscarinic effects (nicotinic effects can not be reversed) Atropine IV
Adverse effects of antimuscarinic agents Dry mouth Blurred vision Tachycardia Constipation Hot flushed dry skin & hyperthermia may occur with high doses
Contraindications q Glaucoma • Increase IOP q BPH • Bladder wall relaxation & sphincter contraction
Atropine poisoning Hot flushed dry skin & hyperthermia, Agitation, delirium, hallucination, Convulsions & coma Treatment is symptomatic
Individual drugs Atropine Hyoscine • Buscopan Clidinium • Libraxam Prifinium • Riabal
Neuromuscular blockers q Nondepolarizing (competitive) blockers The first drug known to block the skeletal NMJ was curare. Neuromuscular blockers are clinically useful during surgery to facilitate tracheal intubation and provide complete muscle relaxation at lower anesthetic doses, allowing for more rapid recovery from anesthesia and reducing postoperative respiratory depression.
Neuromuscular blockers Depolarizing agents Depolarizing blocking agents work by depolarizing the plasma membrane of the muscle fiber, similar to the action of ACh.
