臨床応用
Pilocarpine, the salt of an alkaloid obtained from Pilocarpus jaborandi, is an example of a muscarinic agonist that does not adhere to the
traditional SAR. In 1876, Langley reported that extracts containing the alkaloid stimulated the end organs of parasympathetic neurons. The
structure of pilocarpine was reported in 1901.
Pilocarpine is marketed as tablets (Salogen), an ophthalmic solution, and gel. It penetrates the eye well and is the miotic of choice for
open-angle glaucoma and to terminate acute angle closure attacks. It also is used for the treatment of xerostomia (dryness of the mouth) caused
by radiation therapy of the head and neck, Sjogren's syndrome, or as a side effect of some psychotropic drugs.
