edrophonium has been researched along with Palsy in 11 studies
Edrophonium: A rapid-onset, short-acting cholinesterase inhibitor used in cardiac arrhythmias and in the diagnosis of myasthenia gravis. It has also been used as an antidote to curare principles.
edrophonium : A quaternary ammonium ion that is N-ethyl-N,N-dimethylanilinium in which one of the meta positions is substituted by a hydroxy group. It is a reversible inhibitor of cholinesterase, with a rapid onset (30-60 seconds after injection) but a short duration of action (5-15 minutes). The chloride salt is used in myasthenia gravis both diagnostically and to distinguish between under- or over-treatment with other anticholinesterases. It has also been used for the reversal of neuromuscular blockade in anaesthesia, and for the management of poisoning due to tetrodotoxin, a neuromuscular blocking toxin found in puffer fish and other marine animals.

" Although edrophonium does not alter plasma cholinesterase activity, we have observed that doses of edrophonium that antagonize paralysis from other nondepolarizing muscle relaxants are less effective with mivacurium." | 7.69 | Edrophonium increases mivacurium concentrations during constant mivacurium infusion, and large doses minimally antagonize paralysis.
