-alkaloids
Muscarinic agonist drugs
-Ach
-Methacholine
-Carbachol
-Bethanechol
-muscarine
-pilocarpine
Indirect cholinergic agonists

Choline esters (M agonists)
-Ach
-methacholine
-carbochol
-bethanechol
Methacholine structure
-Ach with B substitution
-reduced N selectivity
-more AChE resistant
-cholinergic
Carbachol structure
-carbamate group instead of acetyl
-resistant to AChE
-active at both N and M receptors
-cholinergic
Methacholine use
-test for hyperactive airways
Carbachol use
occular
Bethanechol structure
-carbamate AND B substitution
-NO effect on N receptor
-cholinergic
Bethanechol use
-GI stimulation
-urinary retention
-cholinergic
Alkaloids
-muscarine
-pilocarpine
Muscarine effect
-BRADYcardia
-nausea, cramps
-bronchoCONSTRICTION
-salivation
-visual disturbances
-sweating
-hypotension
-cholinergic
Pilocarpine effect
-promote sweating, salivation, urination
-cholinergic
Pilocarpine use
-glaucoma
-xerostomia (dry mouth)
-sjorgen’s syndrome (not enough saliva)
Glaucoma containdication
-antimuscarinic drugs
Side effects of cholinergics
-DUMBBELSS
-diarrhea
-urination
-miosis
-BRADYcardia
-BronchoCONSTRICTION
-Lacrimation
