Pentamine

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pentamine is a ganglionic blocker. A ganglionic blocker (or ganglioplegic) is a type of medication that inhibits postganglionic transmission, primarily by acting as a nicotinic antagonist.Because ganglionic blockers block the parasympathetic nervous system and sympathetic nervous system, the effect of these drugs depends upon the dominant tone in the organ system. Examples include hexamethonium, pentolinium, mecamylamine, trimetaphan, and pempidine.
