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 are Agonist and antagonist of muscarinic receptors?
Agonists of muscarinic receptors are substances that bind to the receptor and activate it, mimicking the action of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Examples include pilocarpine and muscarine. Antagonists, on the other hand, bind to the receptor without activating it, thus blocking the action of acetylcholine. Examples include atropine and scopolamine.
Agonist and antagonist of lateral dumbell raise?
The primary agonist muscle in a lateral dumbbell raise is the deltoid, specifically the lateral (side) head of the deltoid. The antagonist muscle is the latissimus dorsi, which performs the opposite movement by extending the shoulder while the deltoid is lifting the dumbbell.
What are the 2 functional characteristics used to classify muscles into classes?
The two functional characteristics used to classify muscles into classes are agonist and antagonist. Agonist muscles are responsible for causing movement, while antagonist muscles work in opposition to the agonist to help control the movement.
What is the agonist and antagonist muscle pair in the wrist?
The agonist muscle for wrist flexion is the flexor carpi radialis, while the antagonist muscle is the extensor carpi radialis longus. These muscles work in opposition to produce movement at the wrist joint.
WHAT IS antagonistic activity?
Antagonist activity is the activity that is counter to the agonist or it can be viewed as an inhibitory activity. If pharmacology, the antagonist does not have any activity, but it blocks or inhibits the activity of the agonist.
Is pilocarpine an antagonist?
No, Pilocarpine is an agonist in how it effects heart rate activity (it increases HR).
Is Adderall an agonist or antagonist?

Is ibuprofen an agonist or antagonist?

Which opioid is classified as a partial agonist antagonist?
The Buprenorphine opioid is classified as a partial agonist antagonist.
What is the agonist and antagonist of the rotation of the shoulder?

What is the effect of pilocarpine on intestine?
pilocarpine as a muscuranic agonist, increases tone and motility of intestinal muscles and of urinary tract and billiary duct's smooth muscles.
Agonist-antagonist function is essential to what?
Drugs can act as agonist or antagonist to regulate a process or function of cellular/chemical process.
What are the agonist and antagonist in a triceps extension?
Agonist - Pectoralis Major, Triceps Brachii Antagonist - Bicep Brachii, Latissimus Dorsi
Is L-dopa an agonist or antagonist for dopamine?
L-dopa is a precursor that is converted to dopamine in the brain. It is not an agonist or antagonist itself, but once converted to dopamine, it acts as an agonist on dopamine receptors.
What is a narcotic agonist-antagonist?
Morphine
