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.
