Homatropine Methylbromide is the methylbromide salt of homatropine, a synthetic tertiary amine alkaloid with antimuscarinic properties. Homatropine methylbromide, a competitive inhibitor of acetylcholine at the muscarinic receptor, blocks parasympathetic nerve stimulation, thereby inhibiting pepsin and gastrin secretion. When administered in high doses, this drug produces inhibitory effects on acetylcholine activity, specifically on smooth muscle located in the gastrointestinal, biliary, and genitourinary tracts, resulting in an anti-spasmodic effect.

4 Drug and Medication Information
4.1 Drug Indication

Used in conjunction with antacids or histamine H2-receptor antagonists in the treatment of peptic ulcers, gastric ulcers and duodenal ulcers, to reduce further gastric acid secretion and delay gastric emptying.


5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Homatropine methylbromide belongs to the group of medicines called anti-muscarinics. Homatropine is used to treat duodenal or stomach ulcers or intestine problems. It can be used together with antacids or other medicine in the treatment of peptic ulcer. It may also be used to prevent nausea, vomiting, and motion sickness.

A03B - Belladonna and derivatives, plain

A03BB - Belladonna alkaloids, semisynthetic, quaternary ammonium compounds

A03BB06 - Homatropine methylbromide


5.3 Mechanism of Action

Homatropine is a quaternary ammonium muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist. The muscarinic acetylcholine receptor mediates various cellular responses, including inhibition of adenylate cyclase, breakdown of phosphoinositides and modulation of potassium channels through the action of G proteins. Homatropine methylbromide inhibits the muscarinic actions of acetylcholine on structures innervated by postganglionic cholinergic nerves as well as on smooth muscles that respond to acetylcholine but lack cholinergic innervation. These postganglionic receptor sites are present in the autonomic effector cells of the smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, sinoatrial and atrioventricular nodes, and exocrine glands. Depending on the dose, anticholinergics may reduce the motility and secretory activity of the gastrointestinal system, and the tone of the ureter and urinary bladder and may have a slight relaxant action on the bile ducts and gallbladder.
