Description
Cevimeline hydrochloride hemihydrate (SNI-2011) is a quinuclidine derivative of acetylcholine and a selective and orally active muscarinic M1 and M3 receptor agonist. Cevimeline hydrochloride hemihydrate stimulates secretion by the salivary glands and can be used as a sialogogue for xerostomia[1][2][3][4]. Cevimeline hydrochloride hemihydrate can cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) [5].

Chemical Information

Cevimeline Hydrochloride

Cevimeline Hydrochloride is a cholinergic analogue with glandular secretion stimulatory activity. Cevimeline binds to and activates muscarinic receptors, thereby increasing the secretions in exocrine salivary and sweat glands. This cholinergic agonist also increases the tone of smooth muscle in the gastrointestinal and urinary tracts. Cevimeline is being studied as a treatment for dry mouth caused by radiation therapy to the head and neck.
