Metocurine, also known as dimethyltubocurarine, is a non-depolarizing muscle relaxant through the neuromuscular blockade. It antagonizes the neurotransmitter action of acetylcholine by binding competitively with cholinergic receptor sites on the motor end-plate. Patients chronically receiving anticonvulsants are relatively resistant to metocurine.

Dimethyltubocurarine (metocurine) is a non-depolarizing muscle relaxant. It binds to muscle acetylcholine receptor by bridging the to alpha and non-alpha subunits from the ligand binding site. Dimethyltubocurarine was used as an anesthesia adjunct to induce skeletal muscle relaxation and to reduce the intensity of muscle contractions in convulsive therapy.
