WHAT SUGAMMADEX FRESENIUS KABI IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
WHAT SUGAMMADEX FRESENIUS KABI IS
Sugammadex Fresenius Kabi contains the active substance sugammadex.
Sugammadex is considered
to be a
_selective relaxant binding agent _
since it only works with specific muscle relaxants,
rocuronium bromide or vecuronium bromide.
WHAT SUGAMMADEX FRESENIUS KABI IS USED FOR
When you have some types of operations, your muscles must be
completely relaxed. This makes it
easier for the surgeon to do the operation. For this, the general
anaesthetic you are given includes
medicines to make your muscles relax. These are called
_muscle relaxants_
, and examples include
rocuronium bromide and vecuronium bromide. Because these medicines
also make your breathing
muscles relax, you need help to breathe (artificial ventilation)
during and after your operation until you
can breathe on your own again.
Sugammadex is used to speed up the recovery of your muscles after an
operation to allow you to breathe
on your own again earlier. It does this by combining with the
rocuronium bromide or vecuronium
bromide in your body. It can be used in adults whenever rocuronium
bromide or vecuronium bromide is
used and in

CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Reversal of neuromuscular blockade induced by rocuronium or vecuronium
in adults.
For the paediatric population: sugammadex is only recommended for
routine reversal of rocuronium
induced blockade in children and adolescents aged 2 to 17 years.
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
Sugammadex should only be administered by, or under the supervision of
an anaesthetist.
The use of an appropriate neuromuscular monitoring technique is
recommended to monitor the recovery
of neuromuscular blockade (see section 4.4).
The recommended dose of sugammadex depends on the level of
neuromuscular blockade to be reversed.
The recommended dose does not depend on the anaesthetic regimen.
Sugammadex can be used to reverse different levels of rocuronium or
vecuronium induced
neuromuscular blockade:
_Adults _
_ _
_Routine reversal: _
A dose of 4 mg/kg sugammadex is recommended if recovery has reached at
least 1-2 post-tetanic counts
(PTC) following rocuronium or vecuronium induced blockade. Median time
to recovery of the T

/T

ratio to 0.9 is around 3 minutes (see section 5.1).

A dose of 2 mg/kg sugammadex is recommended, if spontaneous recovery
has occurred
