Activates Muscarinic Receptors: Bethanechol works by activating muscarinic receptors located in the detrusor muscle of your bladder. The detrusor muscle is responsible for pushing out urine from your bladder.
Strengthens Bladder Contractions: By activating these receptors, bethanechol strengthens the contractions of the bladder muscle, enabling it to push out urine more effectively and overcome urinary retention.
Increases Gastric Motility: Another effect of bethanechol is that it increases the tone and movement of your stomach and intestines. It helps restore impaired peristalsis the wavelike contractions that help move food through your digestive tract.
