    Product Description

    Methylatropine is an antagonist of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (IC50 = <0.1 nM in a radioligand binding assay using isolated porcine brain membranes) and a derivative of atropine (Item No. 12008).1,2 It reduces acetylcholine-induced decreases in blood pressure in rats when administered intravenously with an ED50 value of 5.5 µg/kg.2 Methylatropine reduces salivation, induces mydriasis, and increases heart rate in dogs.3

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
