Anticholinergics and Antispasmodics

Anticholinergics interfere with the action of the neurochemical acetylcholine and block involuntary movements. They stop the transmission of parasympathetic nerve impulses, therefore, lessening the spasms of smooth muscle, such as in the gastrointestinal tract and in the bladder. Most antispasmodic agents are also anticholinergics. They can work directly on the smooth muscle in the wall of the gut. Here they help to relax the muscle and relieve the pain associated with a contraction of the gut.
