Abstract
We report six cases of anaphylactoid reaction after the administration of the muscle relaxant cisatracurium. They include two first-time documented anaphylactoid reactions after a precurarising dose. These incidents challenge existing views of a substantially reduced anaphylactoid potential of cisatracurium relative to other muscle relaxants.
