Vecuronium is used to relax the muscles. It works by blocking the signals between your nerves and your muscles. Vecuronium is given before general anesthesia in preparing you for surgery. Vecuronium helps to keep your body still during surgery. It also relaxes your throat so a breathing tube can be more easily inserted before the surgery.

2024年10月9日 · Vecuronium is a nondepolarizing agent that achieves skeletal muscle paralysis by competing with acetylcholine for cholinergic receptor sites and binding with the nicotinic cholinergic receptor at the postjunctional membrane of the motor endplate. Anticholinesterases antagonize the neuromuscular blocking properties of vecuronium. [3]

Vecuronium bromide, sold under the brand name Norcuron among others, is a medication used as part of general anesthesia to provide skeletal muscle relaxation during surgery or mechanical ventilation. [2] .

2025年1月24日 · Vecuronium is a nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent possessing all of the characteristic pharmacological actions of this class of drugs (curariform). It acts by competing for cholinergic receptors at the motor end-plate.

Adjunct to general anesthesia-induced muscle relaxation for endotracheal intubation, mechanical ventilation. Dose should be calculated based on ideal body weight. dantrolene, vecuronium. Either...

2024年10月9日 · Vecuronium bromide is an FDA-approved peripherally acting, monoquarternary, steroidal, non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocker with an intermediate duration of action used during general anesthesia to facilitate endotracheal intubation to aid in surgical relaxation and, less commonly, in the intensive care setting to achieve paralysis to facilita...

Vecuronium is a 5alpha-androstane compound having 3alpha-acetoxy-, 17beta-acetoxy-, 2beta-piperidino- and 16beta-N-methylpiperidinium substituents. It has a role as a nicotinic antagonist, a neuromuscular agent, a muscle relaxant and a drug allergen. It is an androstane, a quaternary ammonium ion and an acetate ester.

Vecuronium is a bisquaternary nitrogen compound that acts by competitively binding to nicotinic cholinergic receptors. The binding of vecuronium decreases the opportunity for acetylcholine to bind to the nicotinic receptor at the postjunctional membrane of the myoneural junction.

Vecuronium bromide is the organic bromide salt of a 5alpha-androstane compound having 3alpha-acetoxy-, 17beta-acetoxy-, 2beta-piperidinino- and 16beta-N-methylpiperidinium substituents. It has a role as a nicotinic antagonist, a neuromuscular agent and a muscle relaxant. It is a quaternary ammonium salt and an organic bromide salt.

2022年1月13日 · El vecuronio es un relajante muscular usado de forma paralela a la anestesia general y los sedantes. Se utiliza única y exclusivamente en ambientes intrahospitalarios, durante las cirugías que requieran de sedación profunda .
