Anaphylaxis to alcuronium
Anaesthesia and Intensive Care
|May 1, 1978
Abstract:
Five cases of severe anaphylactic reactions to alcuronium are described. Investigation suggested that these are probably true anaphylaxis to the drug. The cases illustrate the value of intradermal testing in detecting the drug involved and the necessity of using colloidal solutions and adrenaline in the management of hypotension due to anaphylaxis.
