Parasympatholytic----refers to a substance or activity that reduces the activity of the parasympathetic nervous system. It can also be called an anticholinergic
DENTAL IMPLICATIONS
Dry mouth
Anticholinergic drugs can directly affect the secretion rates of the minor salivary glands, which are driven by parasympathetic influence
DRUG INTERACTIONS
------------->
Cholinergic drugs and anticholinesterase agents: Bethanechol should not be used at the same time as other cholinergic drugs or anticholinesterase agents.
Sympathomimetic amines: Quinidine, procainamide, adrenaline (epinephrine), and other sympathomimetic amines can antagonize the effects of bethanechol.
Antihistamines, neuroleptics, and quinidine
Antidepressants like amitriptyline, nortriptyline, paroxetine, fluoxetine, and monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOI) can enhance the anticholinergic effect.
Bovine serum albumin (BSA) (Parasympatholytic drugs interact with BSA, but the association is relatively weak)
