Question
Answer
ACh   endogenous NT (not a good drug because rapidly metabolized); clinical use = produce complete miosis in eye surgery  
🗑
Methacholine   muscarinic selective, slightly longer duration of action; clinical use = bronchial airway hypersensitivity testing (diagnostic tool)  
🗑
Carbachol   carbamic acid derivative of ACh designed for longer duration of action (resists hydrolysis once bound to AChE); used in the eye to target the desired tissue, but not nicotinic/muscarinic selective; clinical use = produce complete miosis in eye surgery  
🗑
Bethanechol   added methyl to carbachol makes bethanechol; long-acting (resists hydrolysis) and selective for muscarinic receptors; bladder and GI hypotonia  
🗑
Pilocarpine   muscarinic agonist, binds AChE but resists hydrolysis (making it longer acting); used for treatment of open-angle glaucoma; natural product; can also be used clinically for Sjorgen’s syndrome  
🗑
Cevimeline   synthetic pilocarpine-like molecule; approved for Sjorgen’s syndrome  
🗑
Oxotremorine   muscarinic selective; long acting (resists AChE hydrolysis); clinical use = experimental model of Parkinson’s disease tremor  
🗑
