Observations with norcuron (pharmaceutical works of Gedeon Richter, Budapest, Hungary) injection.
Vecuronium bromide (Norcuron) has been used as an intubation and surgical muscle relaxant besides the use of different types of anaesthesia in the course of 230 gynaecological operations. With a single or repeated drug dose complete muscular relaxation could be assured during operation of 25-60-minute duration. In general the clinical muscle relaxant action lasted for about 30 minutes. Norcuron allowed to perform intubation within 40-120 sec. The drug could be combined with anaesthetics without risk. Cardiovascular unwanted effects or other after-effects did not occur. According to the author-s opinion, as a neuromuscular blocker of a short to medium duration of action, Norcuron is a long-needed drug in Hungarain anaesthesiological practice.
