Abstract
The pharmacokinetic profile of atracurium was studied in normal patients and in patients with renal failure, renal-hepatic failure, or hepatic disease. Its short elimination half-life was not significantly altered by renal failure, but in patients with severe liver disease elimination of its metabolites was prolonged, necessitating care during long-term i.v. infusions in patients with hepatic dysfunction.
