What's the difference between jaborine and pilocarpine?
Jaborine
Definition:
(n.) An alkaloid found in jaborandi leaves, from which it is extracted as a white amorphous substance. In its action it resembles atropine.
Example Sentences:
Pilocarpine
Definition:
(n.) An alkaloid extracted from jaborandi (Pilocarpus pennatifolius) as a white amorphous or crystalline substance which has a peculiar effect on the vasomotor system.
Example Sentences:
