Possible Interaction: Cholinesterase Inhibitors and Niacin

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Inhibition of AChE activity leads to the accumulation of large amounts of acetylcholine and hyperactivity of the cholinergic system by stimulating acetylcholine receptors - muscarinic and nicotinic.

While muscarinic autoreceptors inhibit ACh release, nicotinic autoreceptors enhance ACh release and thus disruption of these processes could potentially affect cholinergic toxicity following exposure to anticholinesterases.
Chemico-biological interactions  •  2003  |  View Paper
DFP and other cholinesterase inhibitors convert muscarinic effects to small doses of benzoylcholine into nicotinic effects and potentiate nicotinic effects of the larger doses.
