Muslax 10mg Injection

Muslax 10mg Injection, made by Ophth Pharma, is a muscle relaxant used in anaesthesia. Its active ingredient is Atracurium 10mg, and it is used for muscle relaxation during surgery and ventilation. Pack size: 5 ampx5ml injection.

Uses of Muslax 10mg Injection

Muslax 10mg Injection is used by anaesthetists during general anaesthesia to relax the muscles. This makes it easier to place a breathing tube in the windpipe and keeps the body still during surgery. It is also used in intensive care to help patients tolerate a breathing machine. It is only ever given in hospital, and the patient is always anaesthetised or sedated when it is used.

How Muslax 10mg Injection works

Atracurium blocks the receptors on muscles that receive signals from nerves, so the muscles relax and cannot contract for a while. It does not affect consciousness or pain. It breaks down in the blood on its own, which makes it useful for people with liver or kidney problems.

Possible side effects

Muslax 10mg Injection is given under close monitoring, but some patients have effects such as:

• Flushing of the skin
• A drop in blood pressure
• Skin rash or redness
• Wheezing (bronchospasm)

Because it stops normal breathing, it is only given when the anaesthetic team is supporting the airway and breathing. Serious allergic reactions are rare and are treated immediately by the team.

Precautions and warnings

• It is given only in hospital or clinic settings by trained healthcare professionals who monitor the patient throughout.
• Tell the medical team about any previous reaction to anaesthetic medicines or muscle relaxants.
• Let them know about asthma, myasthenia gravis or other muscle or nerve conditions, and any recent burns, as these can change how it works.
• Mention all medicines you take, including certain antibiotics, which can strengthen its effect.
• Tell the team if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Storage
