Description
Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2015/022225lbl.pdf | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25885973

Sugammadex (ORG 25969) is a cyclodextrin derivative was synthesized as synthetic receptor (or host molecule) for neuromuscular blockers (rocuronium and vecuronium). It forms a complex with the neuromuscular blocking agents rocuronium and vecuronium, and it reduces the amount of neuromuscular blocking agent available to bind to nicotinic cholinergic receptors in the neuromuscular junction. This results in the reversal of neuromuscular blockade induced by rocuronium and vecuronium. The clinical use of sugammadex promises to eliminate many of the shortcomings in current anesthetic practice with regard to antagonism of rocuronium and other aminosteroid muscle relaxants. Sugammadex is indicated for the reversal of neuromuscular blockade induced by rocuronium bromide and vecuronium bromide in adults undergoing surgery.

CNS Activity

Curator's Comment: Sugammadex passes across blood brain barrier in a very low ratio (< 3% in rats) and intracerebroventricular Sugammadex administration did not result in any changes in behavioral status, locomotor activity or posture in animals. However sugammadex had a neuroprotective effect in a transient global cerebral ischemia/reperfusion rat model.

Sample Use Guides

BRIDION (sugammadex) can be used to reverse different levels of rocuronium- or vecuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade. For rocuronium and vecuronium: • A dose of 4 mg/kg BRIDION is recommended if spontaneous recovery of the twitch response has reached 1 to 2 post-tetanic counts (PTC) and there are no twitch responses to train-of-four (TOF) stimulation following rocuronium- or vecuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade. • A dose of 2 mg/kg BRIDION is recommended if spontaneous recovery has reached the reappearance of the second twitch (T2) in response to TOF stimulation following rocuronium- or vecuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade. For rocuronium only: • A dose of 16 mg/kg BRIDION is recommended if there is a clinical need to reverse neuromuscular blockade soon (approximately 3 minutes) after administration of a single dose of 1.2 mg/kg of rocuronium. The efficacy of the 16 mg/kg dose of BRIDION following administration of vecuronium has not been studied.
