TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Cholinergic Agonists A1 - Stringer, Janet L. Y1 - 2017 N1 - T2 - Basic Concepts in Pharmacology: What You Need to Know for Each Drug Class, 5e AB - Although I have titled this chapter “Cholinergic Agonists,” this chapter, in fact, considers all the drugs that increase activity in cholinergic neurons, sometimes called cholinomimetics (because they mimic the action of acetylcholine). There are two main targets of drug action: the postsynaptic receptor and the acetylcholinesterase enzyme, which breaks down acetylcholine.
