Abstract
Both streptomycin and dihydrostreptomycin in large doses produced neuromuscular blockade in different types of skeletal nerve-muscle preparations. Streptomycin had a quicker, more marked and a longer-lasting action than dihydrostreptomycin. Neostigmine reversed a partial block of streptomycin, but a complete neuromuscular block remained unaffected. Calcium ions antagonized the neuromuscular block of streptomycin rapidly but incompletely.Entities:
