Abstract

The admn. of the dimethyl ether of d.-tubocurarine iodide (M-curare) to 100 patients produced relaxation comparable to that of d-tubocurarine chloride. Respiratory depression was seldom observed and was of minor degree when present. Less M-curare than d-tubocurarine chloride is needed on a mg.-for-mg. basis.
