  • Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor

    Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor

    mAChR Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor mAChRs (muscarinic acetylcholine receptors) are acetylcholine receptors that form G protein-receptor complexes in the cell membranes of certainneurons and other cells. They play several roles, including acting as the main end-receptor stimulated by acetylcholine released from postganglionic fibersin the parasympathetic nervous system. mAChRs are named as such because they are more sensitive to muscarine than to nicotine. Their counterparts are nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), receptor ion channels that are also important in the autonomic nervous system. Many drugs and other substances (for example pilocarpineand scopolamine) manipulate these two distinct receptors by acting as selective agonists or antagonists. Acetylcholine (ACh) is a neurotransmitter found extensively in the brain and the autonomic ganglia. www.MedChemExpress.com 1 mAChR Inhibitors & Modulators (+)-Cevimeline hydrochloride hemihydrate (-)-Cevimeline hydrochloride hemihydrate Cat.

    Adverse Drug Reaction with Hyoscine and Valethamate for Cervical Dilation During Labour

    NepalOriginal Medical Article College Journal Nepal Med Coll J 2019; 21(2): 128-33 Adverse drug reaction with hyoscine and valethamate for cervical dilation during labour Tuladhar LR1, Shrestha A1, Shrestha RK2 1Department of Pharmacology, Nepal Medical College Teaching Hospital, Attarkhel, Gokarneshwor-8, Kathmandu, 2Patan Academy of Health Sciences (PAHS), Patan, Nepal. ABSTRACT Adverse drug reaction (ADR) is an injury caused by taking medication. ADR may occur following single dose or prolong administration of drug or combination of two or more drugs. While major advancements of discipline of pharmacovigilance have taken place in the West, not much has been achieved in Asian countries. Labour is characterised by forceful and painful uterine contraction that result in cervical dilation and foetus decent from the birth canal. Anti-spasmodic drugs like hyoscine butylbromide and valethamate bromide have been used to accelerate cervical dilation and thus reduce the labor duration. The objective was to observe ADR with hyoscine and valethamate for cervical dilation during labor. It was a hospital based cross sectional study. Investigation was carried out in the form of questionnaire. All the consecutive patients who were in active stage of labor were included in the study. They were given Intravenous (IV) valethamate bromide 8mg and hyoscine butylbromide 20mg, 3 doses half an hour apart. After administration of the drug, the progress of labor was monitored and management was done as per protocol in obstetrics and gynaecology department. ADR reported were blurred vision in 47.7% of the patients, followed by dry mouth (36.9%) and tachycardia (19.2%). Other ADRs were nausea (6.2%), dizziness (3.8%), flushing (2.3%), vomiting (1.5%), fever (1.5%) and constipation (1.5%).
