Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9349062

Cisatracurium is a cis-cis isomer of atracurium and five time as potent as atracurium. The drug is approved by FDA and marketed under the name Nimbex. It is indicated as an adjunct to general anesthesia, to facilitate tracheal intubation, and to provide skeletal muscle relaxation due to its antagonistic properties toward nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
The recommended initial doses is 0.2 mg/kg, however it should be individualized. A dose of 0.03 mg/kg is recommended for maintenance of neuromuscular block during prolonged surgical procedures.
Route of Administration: Intravenous
In Vitro Use Guide
Human umbilical vein endothelial cells were incubated with 0, 0.96, 3.2, 9.6, 32, and 96 microM of cisatracurium for 72 h and the drug (3.2 microM) decreased the cell count to 50% (SD, 8.6%).
