    Product Description

    Oxyphenonium is an antagonist of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors that binds to muscarinic receptors on isolated guinea pig atria and ileum (Kds = 0.11 and 0.17 nM, respectively).1 In vivo, oxyphenonium reverses carbaminocholine- and acetylcholine-induced decreases in blood pressure in anesthetized cats (ED50s = 0.591 and 1 μg/kg, respectively).2 It decreases rumenal ulcer formation in rats and suppresses insulin-induced gastric secretion in dogs with gastric fistulas.3 Oxyphenonium also prevents form-deprivation myopia (FDM) in a chick model of experimental myopia.4 Formulations containing oxyphenonium have been used to treat peptic ulcers.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
