Homatropine Methyl Bromide
Homatropine Methyl Bromide is a quaternary ammonium anticholinergic agent derived from tropine. It functions as a muscarinic antagonist with reduced central nervous system penetration compared to atropine due to its charged structure. The compound is chemically defined by the molecular formula C17H24BrNO3 and registered under CAS No. 50-48-6.
Strictly contraindicated in patients with glaucoma, prostatic hypertrophy, or obstructive uropathy. Storage requires sealed containers at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) away from direct light to prevent hydrolysis. Handling mandates PPE to avoid dermal absorption and inhalation risks.
