Dantrolene sodium and dystrophia myotonica [PDF]
Summary A patient with dystrophia myotonica was given dantrolene sodium to try to provide muscle relaxation during a cholecystectomy. Dantrolene was used as it is accepted that the drug has a place in the control of spasticity and also causes muscle relaxation, whereas conventional muscle relaxants are unable to control myotonia of ...
