pilocarpine and Convulsions, Febrile

pilocarpine has been researched along with Convulsions, Febrile in 4 studies

Pilocarpine: A slowly hydrolyzed muscarinic agonist with no nicotinic effects. Pilocarpine is used as a miotic and in the treatment of glaucoma.
(+)-pilocarpine : The (+)-enantiomer of pilocarpine.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The aim of the study was to determine whether (1) number of febrile convulsions is a predictor of development of temporal lobe epilepsy, (2) the susceptibility of rats to pilocarpine-induced seizures is increased due to febrile convulsions and (3) nitric oxide is a mediator in the pathogenesis of febrile convulsions."7.71Do recurrent febrile convulsions decrease the threshold for pilocarpine-induced seizures? Effects of nitric oxide. ( Gulec, G; Noyan, B, 2001)
" In adult rats, the only effective dose and agent was 125 ng V2 receptor antagonist, which prevented pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus, extended the status epilepticus latency and improved the 24 h survival rate."3.71Arginine vasopressin in the pathogenesis of febrile convulsion and temporal lobe epilepsy.
