Clozapine N-oxide is the major metabolite of Clozapine and is blood-brain barrier permeable. Clozapine N-oxide is an agonist of DREADDs and activates the DREADD receptors hM3Dq and hM4Di. Clozapine N-oxide is also a dopamine antagonist and selective muscarinic M4 receptor agonist.

Cyclodrine (Cyclopent) is a cholinergic (muscarinic, nicotinic) (mAChR and nAChR) receptor antagonist.

YM-58790 free base is a potent mAChR antagonist that inhibits M1 mAChR, M2 mAChR, and M3 mAChR with Ki values of 28 nM, 260 nM, and 15 nM, respectively. It inhibits reflex rhythmic bladder contractions in rats by inhibiting bladder pressurization.

Ipratropium bromide monohydrate (Ipratropium bromide hydrate) is a muscarinic antagonist structurally related to ATROPINE but often considered safer and more effective for inhalation use. It is used for various bronchial disorders, in rhinitis, and as an antiarrhythmic.

Carbachol (Carbamoylcholine chloride), an analog of acetylcholine, serves as a valuable tool in the investigation of various physiological responses mediated by nicotinic (nAChR) and muscarinic (mAChR) acetylcholine receptors. These responses include smooth muscle contraction, gut motility, and neuronal signaling. Known for its agonistic properties, Carbachol activates both nAChR and mAChR, with reported Ki values ranging from 10 to 10,000 nM for different receptor types and experimental preparations.

Amitriptyline hydrochloride (Annoyltin) is the hydrochloride salt of the tricyclic dibenzocycloheptadiene amitriptyline with antidepressant and antinociceptive activities.

Pilocarpine Hydrochloride (NSC 5746 HCl) , a nonselective muscarinic acetylcholine receptor agonist, is utilized to produce an experimental model of epilepsy.

Choline chloride (Biocoline) is a basic constituent of lecithin that is found in many plants and animal organs. It is important as a precursor of acetylcholine, as a methyl donor in various metabolic processes, and in lipid metabolism.

Oxybutynin (Ditropan) is a synthetic anticholinergic agent that is used for treatment of urinary incontinence and overactive bladder syndrome.

Pilocarpine nitrate (Pilagan) is a slowly hydrolyzed muscarinic agonist with no nicotinic effects. Pilocarpine is used as a miotic and in the treatment of glaucoma.

Olanzapine (LY170053) is an atypical antipsychotic that is used currently in the treatment of schizophrenia and bipolar illness.

Scopolamine butylbromide ((-)-Scopolamine butylbromide) is a competitive antagonist of mAChR (IC50: 55.3 ± 4.3 nM).

Arecoline hydrobromide (Arecoline HBr) is a muscarinic acetylcholine receptor agonist.

Scopoletin (Esculetin 6-methyl ether) is a plant growth factor derived from the root of Scopolia carniolica, inhibits of acetylcholinesterase (AChE).

Bethanechol chloride (Carbamyl-β-methylcholine chloride) is a slowly hydrolyzing muscarinic agonist with no nicotinic effects. It is used to increase smooth muscle tone in the GI tract following abdominal surgery or to treat urinary retention without obstruction. Possible side effects include hypotension, heart rate changes, and bronchial spasm.

Prifinium bromide is a quaternary ammon antimuscarinic. It inhibits hyperkinesia of the digestive organs and urinary tract and has a spasmolytic action.

Clozapine (HF 1854) is a tricylic dibenzodiazepine, classified as an atypical antipsychotic agent. It binds several types of central nervous system receptors, and displays a unique pharmacological profile. Clozapine is a serotonin antagonist, with strong binding to 5-HT 2A 2C receptor subtype. It also displays strong affinity to several dopaminergic receptors, but shows only weak antagonism at the dopamine D2 receptor, a receptor commonly thought to modulate neuroleptic activity.

Dronedarone (SR 33589) is an amiodarone analogue which has an effective and promising treatment for Atrial fibrillation.

Quetiapine (ICI204636) is used for the therapy of schizophrenia, and for the treatment of acute manic episodes associated with bipolar I disorder. The mechanism of quetiapine' action is thought by mediated through antagonist activity at serotonin and dopamine receptors. Specifically, the D1 and D2 dopamine, the α1 adrenoreceptor and α2 adrenoreceptor, and 5-HT1A and 5-HT2 serotonin receptor subtypes are antagonized. Quetiapine also can inhibit the histamine H1 receptor.

Escitalopram (Seroplex) is a furancarbonitrile that is one of the SEROTONIN UPTAKE INHIBITORS used as an antidepressant. The drug is also effective in reducing ethanol uptake in alcoholics and is used in depressed patients who also suffer from tardive dyskinesia in preference to tricyclic antidepressants, which aggravate this condition.

Atropine (DL-Hyoscyamine) Sulfate is the sulfate salt of atropine, a naturally-occurring alkaloid isolated from the plant Atropa belladonna. Atropine functions as a sympathetic, competitive antagonist of muscarinic cholinergic receptors, thereby abolishing the effects of parasympathetic stimulation.

Atropine sulfate monohydrate (Atropine sulfate hydrate), the sulfate salt of atropine, is a competitive muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist.

L-Hyoscyamine (Daturine) functions as a non-selective, competitive antagonist of muscarinic receptors, thereby inhibiting the parasympathetic activities of acetylcholine on the salivary, bronchial, and sweat glands, as well as the eye, heart, bladder, and gastrointestinal tract. Hyoscyamine is a belladonna alkaloid derivative and the levorotatory form of racemic atropine isolated from the plants Hyoscyamus niger or Atropa belladonna, which exhibits anticholinergic activity. These inhibitory effects cause a decrease in saliva, bronchial mucus, gastric juices, and sweat. Furthermore, its inhibitory action on smooth muscle prevents bladder contraction and decreases gastrointestinal motility.
