👉 An anticholinesterase is a type of enzyme that breaks down acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter in the brain. Acetylcholine is an important neurotransmitter that plays a key role in controlling muscle movement and sensory perception. Anticholinesterases are enzymes that act as blockers on acetylcholine receptors, preventing the release of acetylcholine from nerve cells. Anticholinesterase drugs work by blocking the binding of acetylcholine to its receptor, which
