HIDE SMILES / InChI
Gallamine triethiodide is a synthetic nondepolarizing blocking drug, which is allosteric antagonist of muscarinic M2 acetylcholine receptor and inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase. It was used under brand name flaxedil to stabilize muscle contractions during surgical procedures. However, this usage was discontinued. It was shown, that gallamine caused tachycardia by depressing the vagus nerve and, occasionally, hypertension and increased cardiac output.

In Vitro Use Guide
The mechanisms of action of gallamine on nerve terminals, cholinergic receptors, and the threshold for propagation of end-plate potentials to the muscle fiber were investigated in rat phrenic nerve-diaphragm preparations. Intracellular studies were made with glass microelectrodes to determine changes in end-plate potentials and miniature end-plate potentials produced by gallamine at concentrations between 10(-7) M to 10(-4) M. Gallamine excited and then depressed the release of transmitter from nerve terminals.
