Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including: http://adisinsight.springer.com/drugs/800001965 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10668706

Alvameline is a partial agonist of the M1 mAChR that also displays M2/M3 antagonist effects. It readily crosses the blood-brain barrier. It has an effect profile that makes it of interest to test its ability to counteract bladder overactivity in humans. Behaviorally, alvameline has been shown to significantly improve Morris water maze (MWM) performance in both young and ageimpaired rats. It failed to improve cognition in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease.
