Tilstigmin Tablet contains neostigmine (15 mg) and works on the body as follows:

• Cholinesterase Inhibition: Neostigmine works by preventing the breakdown of a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine by an enzyme known as acetylcholinesterase. With more acetylcholine available in the neuromuscular junction, the communication between nerves and muscles is enhanced, improving muscle strength and contraction in conditions like myasthenia gravis.

• Muscarinic Receptor Stimulation: Neostigmine also stimulates certain receptors called muscarinic receptors, leading to an increase in smooth muscle contractions in the gastrointestinal and urinary tracts. This action aids in relieving conditions like paralytic ileus and urinary retention.
