Scopolamine Powder

Description

Scopolamine powder is a tropane alkaloid widely found in Solanaceae plants. It was first isolated from scopolamine by E. Schmidt in 1892. Its chemical formula is C17H21NO4. It has multiple pharmacological effects and is widely used in the medical field. Scopolamine has a significant central sedative effect and can be used for pre-anesthesia administration to reduce tension and anxiety during surgery. As an M cholinergic receptor blocker, scopolamine can block M cholinergic receptors, reduce glandular secretion, make patients feel thirsty, and cause increased heart rate and pupil dilation. Scopolamine has a direct excitatory effect on the respiratory center and can accelerate breathing. Scopolamine can relieve peripheral vascular spasms, improve microcirculation, and help treat certain circulatory disorders. It has a good effect on motion sickness (such as motion sickness, seasickness, etc.) and is often used in combination with diphenhydramine to enhance the effect.
