Because these medicines may take some time to have an effect on breathing, they usually are taken on a regular schedule. They are used for both short- and long-term relief of symptoms. There are two types of anticholinergics: short-acting and long-acting. The short-acting type relieves symptoms and the long-acting type helps prevent breathing problems. Short-acting anticholinergics are used for treating stable COPD in a person whose symptoms come and go (intermittent symptoms).
Anticholinergic drugs block the action of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine on neurons in the brain. Thus, anticholinergic drugs are used to decrease tremors, rigidity, and drooling in patients under the age of 60.Unfortunately, acetylcholine is essential for proper neurotransmission in other areas of the brain.owever, anticholinergic drugs decrease the influence of acetylcholine in the body, either by preventing its production, blocking its receptor sites, or breaking it down chemically. Thus, anticholinergic drugs are used to decrease tremors, rigidity, and drooling in patients under the age of 60.
