Is pilocarpine an antagonist or an agonist?

Pilocarpine is actually a Muscarinic cholinergic receptor (mAChR) agonist. It works on the Parasypathetic nervous system; therefore, it makes sense that the agonist working on the PNS would result in decreased heart rate. Atropine, in contrast, is an muscarinic cholinergic receptor antagonist and will lead to increased heart rate due to the lowered effect of the parasympathetic system on the heart.


What would be the effect of atropine on the heart?

What is siboxone?

Suboxone (buphrenorphine) is a narcotic agonist/antagonist that is used for pain relief and opiate detoxification. Its opiate antagonist characteristics prevent users from getting as high as they would from other opiate drugs. However, it is addictive and should be used under the care of a physician who thoroughly understands the protocols for which it is intended. There is a major storefront industry of quack doctors who claim to be experts in opiate detox using Suboxone. The giveaway is usually failure to accept insurance. Just ask them if they take insurance. If they say no, only cash, walk away.

The pyloric sphincter is mediated by excitatory cholinergic vagal fibers, so a cholinergic agonist would constrict the sphincter.


Is suboxone on opiate?

Suboxoneâ„¢ is the brand name for a prescription medication containing two drugs, one of which is an opiate and the other an opiate antagonist (a compound that occupies the same receptor sites as an opiate without causing any of the effects of an opiate).The opiate in Suboxone is buprenorphine hydrochloride, and the anti-opiate, technically called an opiate antagonist or an opioid antagonist, is naloxone hydrochloride dihydrate. Don't worry about the "hydrochloride" or the "dihydrate" names. They are only artifacts of how the drugs are chemically separated from impurities when the drugs are manufactured. Regardless of the strength of the medication prescribed, the amount of buprenorphine relative to the amount of naloxone is 4:1.You may know that Suboxone is not used to treat pain; it is used to treat opiate dependence, and that is part of the reason that it contains naloxone. Naloxone is the antidote for opiate overdose. It is given to an opiate overdose patient by injection only for two reasons: 1) An overdose patient needs the antidote in his system as soon as possible. 2) When it is taken orally, only about a measly 3% of the naloxone ends up in the patient's blood. The remaining 97% is destroyed by the liver.Suboxone is supposed to only be taken sublingually (placed under the tongue). When taken that way, almost all of the opiate and naloxone gets into the patient's bloodstream. In other words, the bioavailabilities of the drugs are nearly 100%. However, if the thin film were swallowed instead, most of the opiate would get to his bloodstream while only about 3% of the naloxone would be bioavailable.
