  1. Pharmacology of Carbamyl Inhibitors of Acetylcholinesterase Eye Exocrine glands Cardiac muscle Smooth muscles Skeletal muscle Toxicity

  2. Therapeutic Uses of Inhibitors of Acetylcholinesterase Glaucoma (wide angle) Atony of the bladder Atony of the gastrointestinal tract Intoxication by antimuscarinic agents(use physostigmine) Intoxication by tricyclic antidepressants (TCA’s) or phenothiazines(use physostigmine) Recovery of neuromuscular function after competitive blockade of NN receptor of skeletal muscle fibers Myasthenia gravis

  3. Therapeutic Uses of Edrophonium Diagnosis of myasthenia gravis In conjunction with chosen therapeutic agent to determine proper dose of agent

  4. Determining Proper Dose of AChE Inhibitor

  5. Inhibitors of AChE Are Used for Therapy of Alzheimer’s Disease Tacrine Donepezil Rivastigmine Galantamine
