Hey guys... Im in need of some help here.
I've read that you should watch the dose of Neostigmine in patients with partial reversal of muscle blockade (TOF > 0.4 and specially > 0.7) cause there is risk of paradoxical muscle relaxation. The same occurs if you give it to a patient without muscle relaxation.
Whats the mechanism behind these paradoxical reaction?
PD: I have the same question about Benzodiazepines paradoxical agitation, just in case you can algo help me with that one
