Antimuscarinic agents may impair BP stability during pressor/depressor challenges in healthy adults; leaves open clinical relevance and need for patient studies.
Does muscarinic cholinergic blockade with glycopyrrolate or atropine affect arterial blood pressure stability in healthy young volunteers?
Antimuscarinic agents compromise arterial blood pressure stability by diminishing baroreflex sensitivity, highlighting the importance of vagal cardiac function in hemodynamic homeostasis.
Wray et al. (2001) studied this question.
