Abstract
The physiology of the neuromuscular junction has a significant impact on the pharmacology of neuromuscular blockade and associated reversal. Depolarizing and nondepolarizing agents for blockade and enzyme inhibitors for reversal of blockade are discussed. Clinical applications are also reviewed.
