hexamethonium and Enterovirus Infections

hexamethonium has been researched along with Enterovirus Infections in 2 studies

Hexamethonium: A nicotinic cholinergic antagonist often referred to as the prototypical ganglionic blocker. It is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and does not cross the blood-brain barrier. It has been used for a variety of therapeutic purposes including hypertension but, like the other ganglionic blockers, it has been replaced by more specific drugs for most purposes, although it is widely used a research tool.

Enterovirus Infections: Diseases caused by ENTEROVIRUS.
