Overview
Explore an in-depth lecture on anticholinergic drugs, also known as parasympatholytic drugs, presented by Dr. Najeeb.

Learn about the two main categories of anticholinergics: antimuscarinic and antinicotinic agents. Understand how these drugs inhibit the parasympathetic nervous system and affect various bodily functions, including smooth muscle movement in the gastrointestinal tract, urinary tract, and lungs. Gain valuable insights into the differences between parasympatholytic and sympathomimetic agents, and their respective effects on the body.
