Propiverine is a drug for the treatment of incontinence and pollakiuria. Such micturitional disorders are principally caused by a hyperactive bladder. The effects of propiverine, its active metabolite, 1-methyl-4-piperidyl benzilate N-oxide (DPr-P-4 (N--&gt;O)), oxybutynin and terodiline on muscarinic receptors in guinea pig urinary bladder, salivary glands, cerebral cortex, ileal longitudinal muscle and heart were compared. Both propiverine and DPr-P-4 (N--&gt;O) competitively inhibited specific binding of 3H-quinuclidinyl benzilate (3H-QNB) to membrane fractions of these tissues. Oxybutynin, terodiline, pirenzepine and atropine also competitively inhibited the binding of 3H-QNB. The order of these drugs in terms of their affinity for muscarinic receptors was as follows: atropine &gt; oxybutynin &gt; pirenzepine, DPr-P-4 (N--&gt;O), terodiline &gt; propiverine. Propiverine and DPr-P-4 (N--&gt;O) had no selectivity for muscarinic receptors in these tissues, the same as atropine. In contrast, pirenzepine, a M1-selective drug, had 10.1 times greater affinity for muscarinic receptors in the cerebral cortex than in urinary bladder, and the affinity of oxybutynin for muscarinic receptors in salivary glands and in cerebral cortex was 10.9 times and 13.9 times higher, respectively, than in urinary bladder. The affinity of terodiline for muscarinic receptors in the cerebral cortex was 4.4 times higher than in urinary bladder. In this study, the effect of propiverine and oxybutynin on pilocarpine (1 mg/kg, s.c.)-induced salivation in conscious dogs was also compared. Propiverine (5 mg/kg, i.v.) had no effect on pilocarpine-induced salivation, whereas oxybutynin (0.1 mg-0.5 mg/kg, i.v.) inhibited it significantly and dose-dependently. The ID50 values (95% confidence limits) for propiverine and oxybutynin during the 20 min after intravenous administration were 6.88 mg/kg (4.71-15.67) and 0.154 mg/kg (0.115-0.205), respectively. These findings suggest that although propiverine, its active metabolite DPr-P-4 (N--&gt;O), oxybutynin and terodiline competitively inhibit the binding of 3H-QNB to muscarinic receptors, the affinity of these drugs for the muscarinic receptors of these tissues is very different and that propiverine has less effect on salivation than oxybutynin.
