MeSH Heading: Gallamine Triethiodide
Tree Number(s): D02.092.877.400; D02.675.276.400
Unique ID: D005703
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D005703
Scope Note: A synthetic nondepolarizing blocking drug. The actions of gallamine triethiodide are similar to those of TUBOCURARINE, but this agent blocks the cardiac vagus and may cause sinus tachycardia and, occasionally, hypertension and increased cardiac output. It should be used cautiously in patients at risk from increased heart rate but may be preferred for patients with bradycardia. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1992, p198)
Entry Term(s): Flaxedil; Gallamine; Gallamine Triethochloride; Gallamine Triethyl Iodide; Gallamonium Iodide
Pharm Action: Neuromuscular Nondepolarizing Agents
Nicotinic Antagonists
