ARDUAN (pipecuronium bromide) is a neuromuscular blocking agent administered by injection used during anesthesia to facilitate intubation and surgical relaxation. It works as a competitive antagonist at the neuromuscular junction, blocking acetylcholine receptors to produce paralysis. This injectable agent is indicated for patients requiring muscle relaxation during general anesthesia and mechanical ventilation.
