agents that inhibit the activity of cholinergic receptors seems to be a logical choice of agent. The cholinergic system is involved in signaling the production of sweat, hence inhibition of the cholinergic system reduces the perspiration. Some of the anticholinergic agents used for diaphoresis include...
They are medications, known as beta-adrenergic blocking agents, which are taken to reduce blood pressure. In short, a beta blocker hinders the effects of epinephrine (also known as adrenaline) by binding to beta receptors on nerves, and beta blockers slow the heart beat down and cause it to...
Cholinergic signalling, which is important in cognition, is lost as AD develops, so the first (and current) drugs used to combat the cognitive deficits of AD are acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEIs). Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) also hydrolyses acetylcholine, so it may be desirable that drugs...
Excessive sweating is known as Hyperhidrosis. There is an excessive amount of secretion from the eccrine glands and apocrine glands. Increased stimulation of the sympathetic signaling to the endocrine glands by the cholinergic autonomic neuron results in excessive sweat production. ...
