Case ReportsProlongation of rapacuronium neuromuscular blockade by clindamycin and magnesium.
We report a prolonged neuromuscular block with the nondepolarizing muscle relaxant rapacuronium in the presence of clindamycin. Even when using "short-acting" muscle relaxants, the anesthesiologist must routinely monitor the neuromuscular function.
