chloroquine and Muscle Relaxation

chloroquine has been researched along with Muscle Relaxation in 11 studies

Chloroquine: The prototypical antimalarial agent with a mechanism that is not well understood. It has also been used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and in the systemic therapy of amebic liver abscesses.
chloroquine : An aminoquinoline that is quinoline which is substituted at position 4 by a [5-(diethylamino)pentan-2-yl]amino group at at position 7 by chlorine. It is used for the treatment of malaria, hepatic amoebiasis, lupus erythematosus, light-sensitive skin eruptions, and rheumatoid arthritis.

Muscle Relaxation: That phase of a muscle twitch during which a muscle returns to a resting position.

" However, chronic use of β-agonists to treat asthma is associated with desensitization of β-agonist signaling and a resultant loss of bronchodilator effect, worsening of airway hyperreactivity, and increased incidence of asthma-related morbidity and mortality."1.38Future bronchodilator therapy: a bitter pill to swallow?
