INITIAL U.S. APPROVAL: 1995
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
Cisatracurium besylate injection is a nondepolarizing neuromuscular
blocker indicated:
as an adjunct to general anesthesia to facilitate tracheal intubation
in adults and in pediatric patients 1
month to 12 years of age (1)
to provide skeletal muscle relaxation during surgery in adults and in
pediatric patients 2 to 12 years of
age as a bolus or infusion maintenance (1)
for mechanical ventilation in the ICU in adults (1)
Limitations of Use:
Cisatracurium besylate injection is not recommended for rapid sequence
endotracheal intubation due to
the time required for its onset action (1)
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
Store cisatracurium besylate injection with the cap and ferrule intact
and in a manner that minimizes the
possibility of selecting the wrong product (2.1)
Administer intravenously only by or under the supervision of
experienced clinicians familiar with drug’s
actions and possible complications (2.1)
Use only if personnel and facilities for resuscitation and life
support, and a cisatracurium besylate
injection antagonist are immediately available (2.1)
Use a peripheral nerve stimulator to determine adequacy of blockade
(e.g., need for additional doses),
minimize risk of overdosage or underdosage, assess extent of recovery
from blockade, potentially limit
exposure to toxic metabolites through dose titration, and facilitate
more rapid reversal of cisatracurium
besylate injection-induced paralysis (2.1)
