Tubocurarine (also known as d-tubocurarine or DTC) is a toxic alkaloid and skeletal muscle relaxant in the category of non-depolarizing neuromuscular-blocking drugs used adjunctively in anesthesia to provide skeletal muscle relaxation during surgery or mechanical ventilation. Unlike a number of other related skeletal muscle relaxants it is now rarely considered clinically to facilitate endotracheal intubation.
