Product Description:
Pirenzepine blocks M1 muscarinic receptors, the receptors on nerve cells in the stomach wall that switch on acid secretion. Older antimuscarinic medicines such as atropine block all muscarinic receptors and cause dry mouth, blurred vision and a fast heart rate at doses that reduce acid. Pirenzepine is selective for the M1 type and does not cross into the brain, so at usual doses it lowers acid with fewer of those effects.
It is used for duodenal and gastric ulcers and for gastritis, taken two or three times a day before meals. In most countries it has been replaced by proton pump inhibitors and H2 blockers, which reduce acid more strongly, but it is still prescribed in some markets, including Japan, where 25 mg tablets are sold. Dry mouth and constipation are the most common side effects.
Sourcing notes. Pirenzepine is an older, low-volume product with few remaining manufacturers, so supply and document status vary and we confirm current sources before quoting. Low-dose pirenzepine eye gel was studied in children to slow the progression of short-sightedness (myopia), but it was never approved; current myopia research focuses on low-dose atropine eye drops. Any eye use would need its own registration. Finished product, API and dossier enquiries are welcome.
