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.
Bronchial smooth muscle tone
