What is Pancuronium?

Plain description, key identifiers and synonyms

Pancuronium is a steroid ester in which a 5alpha-androstane skeleton is C-3alpha- and C-17beta-disubstituted with acetoxy groups and 2beta- and 16beta-disubstituted with 1-methylpiperidinium-1-yl groups. It is a non-depolarizing curare-mimetic muscle relaxant. It has a role as a cholinergic antagonist, a nicotinic antagonist and a muscle relaxant. It is an acetate ester and a steroid ester.
