CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
PHARMACODYNAMICS
Pilocarpine is a cholinergic parasympathomimetic agent exerting a
broad spectrum of
pharmacologic effects with predominant muscarinic action. Pilocarpine,
in appropriate
dosage, can increase secretion by the exocrine glands. The sweat,
salivary, lacrimal,
gastric, pancreatic, and intestinal glands and the mucous cells of the
respiratory tract
may be stimulated. When applied topically to the eye as a single dose
it causes miosis,
spasm of accommodation, and may cause a transitory rise in intraocular
pressure
followed by a more persistent fall. Dose-related smooth muscle
stimulation of the
intestinal tract may cause increased tone, increased motility, spasm,
and tenesmus.
