Sofpironium bromide CAS# 1628106-94-4

Sofpironium, also known as BBI-4000, belongs to a class of drugs called ‘anticholinergics,’ which exert their effect by blocking the action of acetylcholine, a chemical that transmits signals within the nervous system that are responsible for a range of bodily functions, including the activation of sweat glands. Soft-anticholinergics, such as sofpironium, exert their action topically and are rapidly metabolized into a considerably less active metabolite when they reach the blood system, thus potentially allowing for effective doses to be used while reducing the limiting systemic side effects associated with other drugs in this class.
