Homatropine methylbromide ( INN; also known as methylhomatropine bromide) is a quaternary ammonium salt of methylhomatropine. It is a peripherally acting anticholinergic medication that inhibits muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and thus the parasympathetic nervous system. It does not cross the blood–brain barrier.
Homatropine (Equipin, Isopto Homatropine) is an anticholinergic medication that is an antagonist at muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and thus the parasympathetic nervous system. It is used in eye drops as a cycloplegic (to temporarily paralyze accommodation ), and as a mydriatic (to dilate the pupil ).
[1] [2] It contains hydrocodone, as the bitartrate, an opioid agonist; and homatropine, as the methylbromide, a muscarinic antagonist. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is taken by mouth . [ 1 ] [ 2 ]
Morphine methylbromide ( Morphine methobromide, Morphine bromomethylate, Morphosan) a derivative of morphine. It is an opioid listed as a Schedule I Narcotic with an ACSCN of 9305 and a 2014 aggregate national production quota of 5 grams. It is a quaternary ammonium salt formed by reaction of morphine with methyl bromide and a controlled substance.
Hydrocodone plus homatropine (Hycodan) in the form of small tablets for coughing and especially neuropathic moderate pain (the homatropine, an anticholinergic, is useful in both of those cases and is a deterrent to intentional overdose) was more widely used than Dicodid and was labelled as a cough medicine in the United States whilst Vicodin ...
Atropine, a tropane alkaloid, is an enantiomeric mixture of d - hyoscyamine and l -hyoscyamine, with most of its physiological effects due to l -hyoscyamine. Its pharmacological effects are due to binding to muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. It is an antimuscarinic agent.
A bromide ion is the negatively charged form ( Br−) of the element bromine, a member of the halogens group on the periodic table. Most bromides are colorless. Bromides have many practical roles, being found in anticonvulsants, flame-retardant materials, and cell stains. [ 3]
Thin paper discs containing an antibiotic have been placed on an agar plate growing bacteria. Bacteria are not able to grow around antibiotics to which they are sensitive. This is called "the zone of inhibition". Antibiotic sensitivity testing or antibiotic susceptibility testing is the measurement of the susceptibility of bacteria to antibiotics.
