Mode of Action

How Does It Work?

Pilocarpine belongs to a group of medicines called miotics. The medication directly stimulates cholinergic receptors by acting on the muscarinic receptor on the iris sphincter muscle. As a result, it contracts the muscle that makes the eye pupil bigger(miosis).

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

  • Pilocarpine may intensify the effect of anticholinesterases and decrease the effects of anticholinergics
  • Adrenergic blockers may decrease the effects of pilocarpine
  • The effect of pilocarpine will be increased when used along with MAOIs, phenothiazines, antihistamines and tricyclic antidepressants
