(what is this?) (verify)

Timepidium bromide (INN) is an anticholinergic. The quaternary nitrogen prevents it from crossing the blood brain barrier, so it is peripherally acting with no central side effects.

The same compound sans the quaternary methyl group and the methoxy ether is called tipepidine.
