Cisatracurium is one of the ten isomers found in an ampoule of Atracurium! It has been selected out as a useful, potent, predictably degrading drug with a very stable side effect profile!
Althought, it might be that, whilst Cisatracurium probably sounded like a great idea at the time... it was perhaps batting for a marketing USP that wasn't quite there..
If we were being particularly clever we could call it the R-cis-R'-cis isomer of Atracurium besilate, it is 3 times as potent as the Atracurium mix in your anaesthetic room fridge
