Most reasonable Route of Administration of anticholinergic drugs used for the purpose of blocking/attenuating reflex bradycardia:
More potent antisialagogue: scopolamine or atropine?
Ineffective anticholinesterases for management of central anticholinergic syndrome
Do most currently used inhaled or injected anesthetic stimulate significant upper airway secretions?
Most frequent reasons for using anticholinergic agents for preoperative medication:
More potent as an antisialagogue: glycopyrrolate (Robinul) or atropine?
Drug Classification of physostigmine (Antilirium)
Antisialagogue drug which is a quaternary amine (always positively charged, independent of pH)
Antidote for CNS toxicity due to muscarinic cholinergic receptor blockade, secondary to scopolamine overdosage, for example manifested as central anticholinergic syndrome:
Mechanism by which anticholinergic drugs affect body temperature.
Effect of anticholinergic drugs on lower esophageal sphincter tone:
Ocular effects of anticholinergic drugs, e.g.atropine or scopolamine:
More useful when antisialagogue effects and sedation are both required as part of preoperative preparations: atropine or scopolamine?
Within the preoperative timeframe, when should an anticholinergic agent be administered?
Anesthetic agent which may, because it causes excessive secretions, require the use of an antisialagogue.
Effects of anticholinergic drugs on body temperature:
Anticholinergic drug most likely to induce central nervous system toxicity, in particular central anticholinergic syndrome:
