dantrolene and Pain, Postoperative

dantrolene has been researched along with Pain, Postoperative in 5 studies

Dantrolene: Skeletal muscle relaxant that acts by interfering with excitation-contraction coupling in the muscle fiber. It is used in spasticity and other neuromuscular abnormalities. Although the mechanism of action is probably not central, dantrolene is usually grouped with the central muscle relaxants.
dantrolene : The hydrazone resulting from the formal condensation of 5-(4-nitrophenyl)furfural with 1-aminohydantoin. A ryanodine receptor antagonist used for the relief of chronic severe spasticity and malignant hyperthermia.

Pain, Postoperative: Pain during the period after surgery.

( Fujimoto, K; Konishi, K; Kubota, M; Ogawa, H, 1997)
"A single oral dose of dantrolene (100--150 mg) given at least 2 hr pre-operatively has been found to reduce significantly the strength of muscular fasciculations, the hyperkalaemia and the incidence of muscle pains following suxamethonium (from 56 to 4%) in a series of forty-eight patients compared with controls."5.04Dantrolene and suxamethonium.
