M057 anaphylaxis to rocuronium and evidenced lack of cross reactivity with other neuromuscular blocking agents

Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) such as rocuronium, vecuronium, cisatracurium, succinylcholine, etc. are commonly used during anesthesia induction. There are reported cases of perioperative anaphylaxis due to NMBA; however, the cross reactivity between these medications is not well determined.
