Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Physostigmine sulfate is a cholinesterase inhibitor that is rapidly absorbed through membranes. It can be applied topically to the conjunctiva. It also can cross the blood-brain barrier and is used when central nervous system effects are desired, as in the treatment of severe anticholinergic toxicity.
