Neotagmin-P Injection 5 ml
About Neotagmin-P Injection 5 ml
Neotagmin-P Injection 5 ml is an anticholinergic agent/acetylcholinesterase inhibitor combination that is primarily used at the end of an operation to reverse the effects of anaesthetics and muscle relaxants.
Neotagmin-P Injection 5 ml is made of Glycopyrrolate and Neostigmine. Neostigmine raises acetylcholine levels by inhibiting an enzyme that breaks down acetylcholine, which is involved in nerve impulse transmission and muscle action. On the other hand, Glycopyrrolate is an anticholinergic that inhibits the negative effects of Neostigmine, such as slowed heart rate and excessive saliva production.
Neotagmin-P Injection 5 ml is prescription-only medication available in the form of injection. It is administered by a qualified healthcare professional.

Uses of Neotagmin-P Injection 5 ml
Medicinal Benefits
Neotagmin-P Injection 5 ml is an anticholinergic agent/acetylcholinesterase inhibitor combination that is primarily used at the end of an operation to reverse the effects of anaesthetics and muscle relaxants. Neotagmin-P Injection 5 ml is composed of Glycopyrrolate and Neostigmine. Neostigmine boosts acetylcholine levels by blocking an enzyme that degrades acetylcholine, which is involved in nerve impulse transmission and muscle activity. On the other hand, Glycopyrrolate is an anticholinergic that reduces the unfavourable effects of Neostigmine, such as slow heart rate and increased saliva production.
