Depressed motor activity in the brain stem
Reputable inhibitor similar to TCAs
What to give a patient with EPS?

Anticholinergic
Common skeletal muscle relaxants
Cuclobenzaprine
Baclofen
GABA agonists
Imidazolines
Skeletal muscle drug
-Nidine
Can benzodiazepines treat skeletal muscle hyperactivity?
Yes
Most important skeletal muscle relaxant?
Dantrolene
-interferes with calcium release from skeletal muscle
RISK FOR HEPATOTOXICITY
Neuromuscular blockers
Are depolarizing or nondepolarizing
Succinylcholine
Depolarizing blocker at NMJ
Prevents voluntary contraction
OD/ overrelaxation: causes difficulty swallowing and breathing
Risk for malignant hyperthermia
Dantrolene sodium (Dantrium)
Antispasmodic for head and neck
Interferes with release of calcium from skeletal muscle
Helps preoperatively < probability of malignant hyperthermia
