Homatropine is an anticholinergic agent used to dilate the pupil, treat inflammation of the uveal tract, and suppress a cough. Homatropine is an anticholinergic drug that acts as an antagonist at muscarinic acetylcholine receptors
Homatropine acts on receptors in the muscles of the eye (muscarinic receptors). These receptors usually cause constriction and thickening of the lens (focusing the eye), and closing of the iris (pupil constriction).By blocking these receptors, homatropine produces dilatation of the pupil (mydriasis) and prevents the eye from accommodating for near vision (cycloplegia).
