dantrolene and Water-Electrolyte Imbalance

dantrolene has been researched along with Water-Electrolyte Imbalance in 2 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.

Water-Electrolyte Imbalance: Disturbances in the body's WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE.
