How does Hyoscine butylbromide work?
Hyoscine butylbromide quaternary ammonium compound as well as a semisynthetic
derivative of Scopolamine. As an Antimuscarinic, it binds to muscarinic acetylcholine
receptors, blocking their effect. The attachment of the butyl-bromide moiety minimizes
undesirable central nervous system side effects associated with scopolamine/Hyoscine,
thereby effectively preventing the movement of this drug across the blood-brain barrier. It
decreases the stimulation in smooth muscle contractions and the production of respiratory
secretions.
