Atropine antagonises central muscarinic receptors (remember, the parasympathetic nervous system is made up of muscarinic and nicotinic receptors). This muscarinic receptor antagonising alters temperature regulation in the hypothalamus -- the mechanism how it works is unfortunately not understood. But is is known that it reduces blood flow to the skin, thus reducing the ability for the body to lose heat and increasing body temperature. Similar to Adrenaline (Epinephrine for you North American types) I take it, although a brief search could not link adrenaline to hyperthermia (if you know of anything, please let me know).
atropine, phenylephrine, cyclopentolate...
You can use eye drops under your tongue, but they would not have any positive effects.
Hyperthermia is an increase in the core body cells. Our cells can only function at certain temperature ranges. Hyperthermia is a relatively new treatment for cancer cells where therapy can be targeted to protect healthy cells. At 113 degrees, cancer cells are arrested.
.. Then you are COLD! .. Or will get hyperthermia ... 93.0 is not a fever, that is the the opposite of a fever. Hyperthermia!
There are several different symptoms you can have when you are having a heat stroke. Some of these symptoms include a high body temperature, lack of sweating, vomiting, flushed skin, rapid breathing, a racing heart, and a headache.

The amount of atropine in these eyedrops is insufficient to cause atrial fib. Many medications actually contain trace amounts of atropine to discourage abuse.
Atropine may cause severe adverse effects with dose-dependent degrees of severity. Overdoses of atropine, for instance, may induce delirium , hallucinations, coma, circulatory and respiratory collapse, and death.
yeah. Hypothermia and hyperthermia can cause cardiac arrest
atropine
Hyperthermia is an unusually high fever.
Yang got hyperthermia.
Atropine is a drug prepared from propanal and ethanol
No! Atropine is commonly used with steroids after proper diagnosis.
