About Cis-Artacil 20mg Injection

Cis-Artacil 20mg Injection is a neuromuscular blocking agent that helps achieve muscle relaxation during anesthesia or mechanical ventilation. It also helps facilitate tracheal intubation when a person requires assistance with breathing.

Cis-Artacil 20mg Injection contains Cisatracurium, which works by inhibiting acetylcholine from binding to the nicotinic receptors at the neuromuscular junction. This prevents muscle cell depolarization and causes muscular relaxation.

In some cases, this medicine may cause side effects like flushing, slow heartbeat, low blood pressure, and bronchospasm (tightening of airway muscles). Consult the doctor if any of these side effects bother you.

Let the doctor know if you are allergic to any of the components in Cis-Artacil 20mg Injection. Keep your doctor informed about any other medications or herbal products you are taking.
