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.

Is the drug ssri an antagonist or agonist?
The SSRI class is neither antagonist nor agonist. They are re-uptake inhibitors. To the extent of my knowledge (I am NOT a doctor), a serotonin: agonist enhances production of sertonin at the source neuron, antagonists blocks binding of serotonin to the target neuron effectively blinding it, re-uptake inhibitors block the destruction of serotonin, effectively letting it act for longer.
