Valethamate bromide ( sold under many brand names such as Epidosin, Dilaton, Valosin, Valamate, Osdil etc), a quarternary ammonium agent, has been used in augmentation of labor. Valethamate has antimuscarinic action and blocks cholinergic receptors in the ganglia. This action along with the direct action on the smooth muscles of the cervix is thought to help cervical dilatation during labor. Since it is not selective, it exerts anticholinergic side effects such as tachycardia, flushing, cotton mouth and photophobia due to mydriasis. Common side effects are palpitations, increased heart rate, arrhythmia, excessive thirst, reduced bronchial secretions, dry mouth, Photophobia, dry skin, loss of accommodation, slow heart rate, flushing.

Conditions:

Oxyphencyclimine is an anticholinergic drug (trade name Daricon) used in treating peptic ulcers. Daricon was discontinued in USA, but still used worldwide.

Isopropamide is a quaternary ammonium antimuscarinic with peripheral effects similar to those of atropine. It has been used as an adjunct in the treatment of peptic ulcer disease, in the relief of gastro-intestinal and urinary tract disorders associated with smooth muscle spasm, in rhinitis, and the relief of symptoms of cold.
Hexocyclium is an old anticholinergic drug. Hexocyclium is an antimuscarinic. Hexocyclium in therapeutic doses produces a prolonged reduction of gastric acidity. It was used for the treatment of peptic ulcer. Hexocyclium is effective for the control of cramps and diarrhea in cases of irritable bowel syndrome.
Triflupromazine is antipsychotic and an antiemetic drug (sold under the brand names VESPRIN) which used to management of psychoses. However, this drug was discontinued. Triflupromazine binds to the dopamine D1 and dopamine D2 receptors and inhibits their activity. Moreover, binds the muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (M1 and M2).

Benactyzine, an anticholinergic drug, had been used as an antidepressant in the treatment of depression and associated anxiety. It is no longer used in medicine due to its ineffectiveness but is widely used in scientific research. Benactyzine is a muscarinic antagonist which also inhibits the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor.

Conditions:

CHLORISONDAMINE is a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist used as a ganglionic blocking agent in animal research. It was used precedently in the prolonged treatment of hypertension.
Mepenzolate is a postganglionic parasympathetic inhibitor. It decreases gastric acid and pepsin secretion and suppresses spontaneous contractions of the colon. It specifically antagonizes muscarinic receptors. Mepenzolate is marketed under the brand name CANTIL. CANTIL is indicated for use as adjunctive therapy in the treatment of peptic ulcer. It has not been shown to be effective in contributing to the healing of peptic ulcer, decreasing the rate of recurrence, or preventing complications.

Pipenzolate bromide (JB-323), an anticholinergic agent, which binds to muscarinic acetylcholine receptors as an antagonist. Pipenzolate bromide was studied as an antispasmodic agent, and to treat peptic ulcer.
Procyclidine is a muscarinic antagonist that crosses the blood-brain. Procyclidine hydrochloride (brand name Kemadrin) is a synthetic antispasmodic compound of relatively low toxicity. It has been shown to be useful for the symptomatic treatment of parkinsonism (paralysis agitans) and extrapyramidal dysfunction caused by tranquilizer therapy. Procyclidine hydrochloride was developed at The Wellcome Research Laboratories as the most promising of a series of antiparkinsonism compounds produced by chemical modification of antihistamines. Kemadrin is indicated in the treatment of parkinsonism including the postencephalitic, arteriosclerotic, and idiopathic types. Partial control of the parkinsonism symptoms is the usual therapeutic accomplishment. Procyclidine hydrochloride is usually more efficacious in the relief of rigidity than tremor; but tremor, fatigue, weakness, and sluggishness are frequently beneficially influenced. It can be substituted for all the previous medications in mild and moderate cases. For the control of more severe cases, other drugs may be added to procyclidine therapy as indications warrant. The mechanism of action is unknown. It is thought that procyclidine acts by blocking central cholinergic receptors, and thus balancing cholinergic and dopaminergic activity in the basal ganglia. Pharmacologic tests have shown that procyclidine hydrochloride has an atropine-like action and exerts an antispasmodic effect on smooth muscle. It is a potent mydriatic and inhibits salivation. It has no sympathetic ganglionblocking activity in doses as high as 4 mg/kg, as measured by the lack of inhibition of the response of the nictitating membrane to preganglionic electrical stimulation.
