Decamethonium Iodide
A depolarising neuromuscular blocker made of two trimethylammonium groups joined by a ten-carbon chain: it emerged in the late 1940s in the United Kingdom from the work of William Paton and Eleanor Zaimis, and was used in anaesthesia to relax muscles. This family brings together the active ingredient.
Did you know?It belongs to the 'methonium' series: shortening the chain from ten to six carbon atoms gives hexamethonium, which instead of relaxing muscles acts on nerve ganglia and was used against high blood pressure.
