suxamethonium iodide

Dityline-Biolik is a brand of suxamethonium iodide (succinylcholine iodide), a short-acting depolarizing neuromuscular blocker. It is developed and manufactured by Farmstandart-Biolik in Ukraine. Suxamethonium iodide acts as an agonist at the muscle-type nicotinic acetylcholine receptors at the neuromuscular junction, causing prolonged depolarization of the motor endplate. This leads to transient muscle fasciculations followed by flaccid skeletal muscle paralysis. It is approved for use as an adjunct to general anesthesia to facilitate endotracheal intubation, provide skeletal muscle relaxation during surgical procedures, and manage convulsions associated with tetanus.
