Overview
Bethanechol Chloride is a selective muscarinic receptor agonist without any effect on nicotinic receptors. Target: mAChR Bethanechol is a parasympathomimetic choline carbamate that selectively stimulates muscarinic receptors without any effect on nicotinic receptors. Unlike acetylcholine, bethanechol is not hydrolyzed by cholinesterase and will therefore have a long duration of action. Oral bethanechol significantly improves contraction pressures and bolus transit in the smooth muscle portion of the esophagus in patients with severe IEM . Bethanechol has potential benefit in the treatment of cerebral palsy .
Muscarinic receptor agonist (EC 50 values are 7 (M 4 ), 14.5 (M 3 ), 35 (M 1 ) and 32 μM (M 5 )). M 2 agonist activity in vitro . Limited ability to cross the blood-brain barrier.

Note
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
