Atropine Sulfate Injection
Atropine is an antimuscarinic agent commonly classified as anantiparasympathetic or anticholinergic drug. Atropine competitively antagonizes acetylcholine at postganglionic nerve endings, thus affecting receptors of the exocrine glands, smooth muscle, cardiac muscle and the central nervous system.
Atropine Injection is indicated as an antisialogogue in anaesthetic premedication to reduce or prevent secretions in the respiratory tract. Atropine increases sinus rate and sinoatrial and AV conduction by blocking vagal tone. The heart rate is usually increased but is sometimes preceded by an initial bradycardia.
Atropine inhibits secretions throughout the respiratory tract and relaxes bronchial smooth muscle, producing bronchodilatation.
Atropine is used in emergency situations where the heart is beating too slowly. It can also be used to prevent such emergencies. Atropine is also very effective for treating people who become ill as a result of eating poisonous mushrooms.
