Parasympathomimetics indirect

Acetylcholine (ACh) is too rapidly hydrolyzed and inactivated by acetylcholinesterase (AChE) to be of any therapeutic use however, its action can be mimicked by other substances, namely direct or indirect parasympathomimetics. [Pg.102]

Apart from symptomatic, general measures (gastric lavage, cooling with ice water), therapy of severe atropine intoxication includes the administration of the indirect parasympathomimetic physostigmine (p. 102). The most common instances of atropine" intoxication are observed after ingestion of the berry-like fruits of belladonna (children) or intentional overdosage with tricyclic antidepressants in attempted suicide. [Pg.106]
