spiraleyes Posted January 30, 2002 in the species data it says they use this plant to commercially farm atropine. what do they use this for and where? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gomaos Posted January 31, 2002 One use I know of is that atropine is used to revive heart attack patients...I saw it first hand in hospital when they were giving a heart patient atropine... Another use I know of is against asthma... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adrian Posted January 31, 2002 Is'nt Atropine also prescribed for motion sickness or is this one of the other tropanes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gomaos Posted January 31, 2002 i thought the stuff in motion sickness tabs was called dramamine....? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rkundalini Posted January 31, 2002 From memory, Kwells actually contain scopolamine ("hyoscine" as it is called on the label). Similar though. The thing in dramamine (Dramamine is a brand name...) I think is a synthetic with both antihistamine and anticholinergic (a la atropine and friends) effects. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spiraleyes Posted January 31, 2002 isnt Dramamine the stuff i read about all over the place to reduce nausea following injestion of other psychoactives? i suppose swallowing a small amount of brug leaves etc would have a different effect,than just the extraction?

psycho0 Posted January 31, 2002 i think it's hyoscine which is mainly used for motion sickness Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
