Pancuronium (dibromide)

• UNSPSC Description:

  Pancuronium dibromide, a bis-quaternary steroid, is a neuromuscular relaxant. Pancuronium dibromide inhibits neuromuscular transmission by competing with acetylcholine for binding sites on nACh receptors. Pancuronium dibromide also inhibits cardiac muscarinic receptors and has a sympathomimetic action[1][2][3].
