acetylcholine (ACh)
The neurotransmitter is called acetylcholine. Cholinergic receptors are of two kinds: nicotinic receptors, which are situated in striated muscles and muscarinic receptors, which are situated in parasympathetically innervated structures.
Cholinergic drugs are used for urinary retention, myasthenia gravis, glaucoma. Cholinergic drugs act like the neurotransmitter ACh (acetylcholine). Anti Cholinergic (also called Cholinergic blocking) drugs block the action of the ACh. Anti Cholinergic drugs are used foe pylorospasm & peptic ulcers, bladder overactivity, parkinson's disease
Most of the blood vessels are innervated by sympathetic sympathetic adrenergic nerves.It releases norepinephrine which act as a neurotransmitter. The skin and few areas of body have both sympathetic cholinergic and parasympathetic cholinergic nerves which release acetylcholine,which act as a primary neurotransmitter.

The answer is NEUROTRANSMITTER.
acetylcholine
Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter in the GI tract (among other places). An increase in acetylcholine activity (also known as cholinergic activity) results in an increase in GI motility and secretion, not a decrease.
Patients who are taking muscle relaxants or drugs that act like or have an effect on the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (cholinergic or anti-cholinergic drugs) should tell the doctor since they will change the test results. The results will.
it's a hormone when it is produced by the adrenal gland and a nuerotransmitter when it is secreted by a nueron.
Alpha-Motor neurons release the neurotransmitter acetylcholine at a synapse called the neuromuscular junction. When the acetylcholine binds to acetylcholine receptors on the muscle fiber, an action potential is propagated along the muscle fiber in both directions.
