About Atracurium

Neuromuscular blocking agents are used to induce muscle relaxation during surgery, intubation and mechanical ventilation. Atracade™ (Atracurium besylate) is a an intermediate-duration non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent.

It is an adjunct to general anaesthesia or sedation in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) to facilitate endotracheal intubation and to relax skeletal muscles during surgery or mechanical ventilation.
