Pempidine is a quaternary ammonium compound that acts as a potent ganglion blocker. It was first synthesized in 1952 and was initially studied for its potential use in treating hypertension. Pempidine's effects on the autonomic nervous system make it useful in research studies investigating the role of the autonomic nervous system in various physiological processes. However, due to its significant side effects, including hypotension and dry mouth, it is no longer used clinically. Pempidine is still studied in research settings to understand the mechanisms of autonomic nervous system regulation and to develop new drugs for treating autonomic disorders.'
Pempidine: A nicotinic antagonist most commonly used as an experimental tool. It has been used as a ganglionic blocker in the treatment of hypertension but has largely been supplanted for that purpose by more specific drugs.
