oxotremorine and Seizures

oxotremorine has been researched along with Seizures in 28 studies

Oxotremorine: A non-hydrolyzed muscarinic agonist used as a research tool.

Seizures: Clinical or subclinical disturbances of cortical function due to a sudden, abnormal, excessive, and disorganized discharge of brain cells. Clinical manifestations include abnormal motor, sensory and psychic phenomena. Recurrent seizures are usually referred to as EPILEPSY or seizure disorder.
