Preferred Name	Neuromuscular Nondepolarizing Agents
Definitions	Drugs that interrupt transmission at the skeletal neuromuscular junction without causing depolarization of the motor end plate. They prevent acetylcholine from triggering muscle contraction and are used as muscle relaxants during electroshock treatments, in convulsive states, and as anesthesia adjuvants.
Synonyms	Neuromuscular Blocking Agents, Competitive Blockers, Nondepolarizing Non-Depolarizing Muscle Relaxants Drugs, Curariform Agents, Curare-Like Muscle Relaxants, Non Depolarizing Curare Like Agents Nondepolarizing Agents, Neuromuscular Nondepolarizing Blockers Muscle Relaxants, Non-Depolarizing Curariform Drugs Agents, Neuromuscular Nondepolarizing Curare-Like Agents See more See less
