AI summarySynthesized from FDA + DailyMed + ClinicalTrials.gov data
PAVULON (pancuronium bromide) is a non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent administered via injection used during anesthesia to facilitate intubation and surgical paralysis. It works by competitively blocking acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, preventing muscle contraction. This injectable is a foundational anesthetic adjunct with decades of clinical use.
