Mestinon syrup belongs to a class of drugs known as cholinergic muscle stimulants. These medications increase the presence of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine in the contact point between nerves and muscles known as the neuromuscular junction. Acetylcholine is a chemical messenger that performs a number of important functions in the body. In the peripheral nervous system, acetylcholine helps with the contraction of cardiac, skeletal, and smooth muscles.
