SYNOPSISThe effects of dantrolene sodium and diazepam were compared in a double blind crossover study of 42 patients with spasticity due to stable multiple sclerosis. Both drugs reduced the findings of spasticity, clonus, and hyperreflexia, and the complaints of muscle stiffness and cramping. Each drug had different side effects which suggest indications and contraindications for its use in spastic patients.
This investigation documents that a new designer variant of protamine [+18BE] has superior efficacy compared with [+21] standard protamine for reversal of LMWH anticoagulation and that this occurs with a highly favorable toxicity profile.
