Ambenonium Chloride
The chloride salt form of ambenonium, a quaternary ammonium compound with parasympathomimetic activity. Ambenonium chloride is a rapid indirect-acting cholinergic agonist that reversibly blocks the activity of acetylcholinesterase, thereby prevents acetylcholine hydrolysis and prolonging its activity on nicotinic receptors at the neuromuscular junction.
