C26H42Cl2N2O6

Molecular Formula C26H42Cl2N2O6
Description

a nicotinic cholinoreceptor antagonist at the neuromuscular junction; curare-like ganglioblocker.

Bis-quaternary quinuclidine derivative‚ C26H42Cl2N2O6 ‚ synthetic.

 
Biological Activity

Curare-form competitive anti-depolarizing muscle relaxant. Used for muscle relaxation and controlled breathing under narcosis during surgical operations. Can be used for tracheal intubation.



Less potent than d-Tubocurarin. In humans i.v. 1.5-2 mg/kg causes muscle relaxation without breathing suppression; 4-5 mg/kg in 4-5 min complete myorelaxation and apnoe for 20-30 min.



Gradual decurarization: after restoration of spontaneous breathing abdominal and limbs muscles relaxation for some time. To prolong the action of Diplacine the repeated dose must be 1.5-2 times lower.



The effect is antagonized by Proserine.

No histamine liberation‚ no laringo- or bronchoconstriction. High doses may induce 15-20 mmHg blood pressure increase.


For comparative information see the attached table.
