Kruse - Skeletal Muscle Relaxants Flashcards
ending of nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking drugs - isoquinoline derivatives
-curium, or -curarine
ending of nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking drugs - steroid derivatives
-onium
depolarizing neuromuscular agent
succinylcholine
spasmolytics (mm relaxants)
dantroline, botulinum toxin
antimuscarinic cmpds
atropin, glycopyrrolate
cholinesterase reactivators
pralidoxime
nAChR antagonists
nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking drugs
ROA for all neuromuscular blocking drugs
parenterally
drugs that interact with neuromuscular blocking drugs
inhaled anesthetics and abx (aminoglycosides)
nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking drugs don’t work well in these pts; need to do what?
burn patients, increase dose
can cause prolonged paralysis of pt in ICU who has been on steroidal neuromuscular blocking drugs for several days
3-hydrocy meatbolite > longer T1/2 than parent cmpd - seen in steroid derivative nondepol NMJ blocking drugs
tx of malignant hyperthermia
dantroline
cleaves SNARE complex and blocks the release of ACh by preventing vesicle exocytosis
botulinum toxin
tx spacticity ass’d with UMN disorders & malignant hyperthermia
dantroline
inhibition of RyR Ca channels to block release of Ca through the sarcoplasmic reticulum to impair mm contraction
Dantroline
