Atropine is used in medical settings for several purposes:
- Treating bradycardia (slow heart rate)
- Reducing saliva production during surgery
- As an antidote for organophosphate pesticide and nerve agent poisoning
- Eye drops for uveitis and early amblyopia
Regulatory
Atropine is regulated and approved for medical use under prescription-only status in various countries, including the US and Australia.
Monitoring
Regular monitoring of atropine levels in biological samples is crucial for ensuring therapeutic efficacy and safety, especially in cases of poisoning or overdose.
Health Impact
Human Toxicity
Atropine can cause side effects such as dry mouth, dilated pupils, urinary retention, constipation, and a fast heart rate. It should be used with caution in individuals with closed-angle glaucoma.
