Cisatracurium and Atracurium as Antigens [PDF]
Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 1999 Seventy-five consecutive patients referred to an anaesthetic allergy clinic were intradermally tested with atracurium and cisatracurium. With the exception of one patient the results were identical, suggesting that allergy to either drug is associated with allergy to the stereoisomer.

Comparison of hemodynamic effects and intubating conditions with two different doses of Cisatracurium in patients undergoing elective surgery under general anaesthesia [PDF]
, 2022 Introduction: Cisatracurium, a Benzyl-iso-quinolinium compound is a non-depolarizing muscle relaxant with intermediate duration of action. The ED95 dose of Cisatracurium is 0.04mg/kg (0.032-0.05mg/kg).The intubating dose of a non-depolarizing muscle ...
