How COBENFY Works

The efficacy of xanomeline is thought to be due to its agonist activity at M1 and M4 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors in the central nervous system. Trospium chloride functions as a muscarinic antagonist that targets receptors in peripheral tissues. Because trospium chloride does not readily cross the blood-brain barrier, it is used to reduce the peripheral adverse effects associated with xanomeline's muscarinic activation without interfering with its central therapeutic effects.
