Scopolamine is an alkaloid drug extracted from plant called henbane to treat nausea and motion sickness and further to dilate the pupil in ophthalmic procedures. Scopolamine belongs to a class of drugs called anticholinergics. It works by blocking the activity of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which stimulates the part of the brain that triggers nausea and vomiting, involuntary muscle movement in the lungs, and the gastrointestinal and urinary tracts. Scopolamine is also used in medicine as a sedative or hypnotic and sometimes with morphine to relieve pain. Scopolamine has also been prescribed ‘off label’ for depression, asthma, as a smoking-cessation remedy, and to relieve the nausea that accompanies chemotherapy.

The global scopolamine market size was valued at US$ 370.4 million in 2017, and is expected to witness a CAGR of 4.8% over the forecast period (2018 – 2026).
