NAME OF MEDICINE

DESCRIPTION
Rocuronium bromide is a quaternary aminosteroid and an analogue of
vecuronium bromide.
It is an off white to pale yellow or slightly pink
amorphous powder which is readily soluble in water (> 200 mg/mL). A 1%
w/v solution in water has a pH of 8.9 to 9.5. In aqueous solution
rocuronium
bromide is more stable at acidic pH.
Rocon contains rocuronium bromide 10mg/mL,
sodium acetate trihydrate,
sodium chloride, sodium hydroxide, acetic acid and water for
injections
in a
clear, colourless to faintly yellow solution with a pH of 3.5 - 4.5.
Rocuronium
bromide is administered by intravenous bolus or infusion.
PHARMACOLOGY
_PHARMACODYNAMICS._
Rocuronium is a fast onset (relative to vecuronium), intermediate
acting
nondepolarising neuromuscular blocking agent. It acts by competing
with
the natural transmitter acetylcholine and blocking the cholinoceptors
located at the motor endplate of the striated muscle. This is unlike
suxamethonium which causes depolarisation and renders the endplate,
after
initial contraction, unresponsive to stimuli, thus producing paralysis
of the
striated muscle. The action of rocuronium is antagonised by
acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, e.g. neostigmine, edrophonium and
pyridostigmine. The neuromuscular block can also be reversed by
sugammadex, a Selective Relaxant Binding Agent. Rocuronium does not
produce clinically significant autonomic and cardiovascular effects
within
the recommended dose range and is not expected to modulate
cardiovascular effects of anaesthetics or other drugs used during
surgery.
