MeSH Heading: Vecuronium Bromide
Tree Number(s): D04.210.500.054.040.920
Unique ID: D014673
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D014673
Scope Note: Monoquaternary homolog of PANCURONIUM. A non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent with shorter duration of action than pancuronium. Its lack of significant cardiovascular effects and lack of dependence on good kidney function for elimination as well as its short duration of action and easy reversibility provide advantages over, or alternatives to, other established neuromuscular blocking agents.
Entry Term(s): NC-45; Norcuron; ORG-NC 45; ORG-NC-45; ORG-NC45; Vecuronium; Vecuronium Bromide, Quaternary Ion; Vecuronium Citrate; Vecuronium Hydrobromide; Vecuronium Hydrochloride; Vecuronium Maleate; Vecuronium Phosphate
Pharm Action: Neuromuscular Nondepolarizing Agents
Nicotinic Antagonists
