Does atropine block only nicotinic receptors?
Atropine does not only block nicotinic receptors but also acetylcholine at muscarinic receptors
Is atropine obtained from plants?
Yes, atropine is obtained from plants such as Deadly Nightshade (Atropa belladonna) and Jimsonweed (Datura stramonium). These plants contain alkaloids that are extracted to produce atropine, which is commonly used as a medication to treat a variety of conditions.
What is the effect of atropine plus acetylcholine on frog heart?
ACh will decrease heart rate/contractile strength, etc. Atropine is a muscarinic ACh receptor (mAChR) antagonist, so blocks the effects of ACh. Adding both together will result in a weak action of ACh that tails off as all the mAChRs become blocked by Atropine.
Does atropine dry bronchial secretions?
Yes, atropine is known to dry bronchial secretions by blocking the effects of acetylcholine on muscarinic receptors in the respiratory system, leading to decreased mucus production.
Is atropine hydrophobic?
Yes, atropine is considered hydrophobic due to its structure, which contains non-polar functional groups that are more likely to interact with nonpolar solvents like lipids and oils than with water.

Different between atropine and hyoscyamine?
There is not much difference between them. Atropine and Hysocyamine are isomers of each other. Atropine is (+/-) Hyoscyamine, the tropic acid ester of tropine. The naturally occurring alkaloid is (-) Hyocyamine. Thus it can be said that Hyoscyamine is a racemic form of Atropine. In other words, Atropine is a racemic variety of tropine tropate, hysocyamine being the levorotatory enantiomorph of tropine tropate.
