Consumer:The use of cholinergic agonists is contraindicated in patients with peptic ulcers, mechanical GI obstruction, acute GI inflammatory conditions, or urinary obstruction. Cholinergic activity may result in an increase in gastric acid secretion, GI motility, and gastric contractions. In patients with urinary retention, urinary reflux may occur if the sphincter fails to relax when the bladder is contracted by cholinergic stimulation. The reflux of urine from the bladder can cause infection in the kidneys and upper urinary tract if bacteriuria is present.
