Pipecuronium is a piperazinyl androstane derivative, which is a non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent, which was approved under brand name arduan for injection. It is a long-acting neuromuscular blocking agent, indicated as an adjunct to general anesthesia, to provide skeletal muscle relaxation during surgery. Arduan can also be used to provide skeletal muscle relaxation for endotracheal intubation. Pipecuronium undergoes very little metabolism and is excreted by the kidney and the liver. Owing to its relatively long duration of action and to the residual postoperative neuromuscular block (RPONB), the use of pipecuronium was discontinued in the United States and in several European countries. Because of its excellent safety profile, the use of pipecuronium has been maintained in several countries including China, Russia, Brazil, and Hungary, among others. Its safe use, however, is dependent on the availability of a reliable reversal drug. Although widely used, there are concerns with the use of neostigmine for reversal. Arduan is a powerful competitive antagonist of acetylcholine, since it can bind pre- and postsynaptic (N1) receptors of the transmitters.

Sample Use Guides
The recommended initial dose of ARDUAN (pipecuronium bromide) for injection under balanced anesthesia, halothane, isoflurane, or enflurane anesthesia in patients with normal renal function who were not obese is 0.07–0.085 mg/kg (70–85 µg/kg). Good to excellent intubating conditions are generally provided within 2.5 to 3 minutes. Maximum blockade, usually > 95%, is achieved in approximately 5 minutes. Doses in this range provide approximately 1–2 hours of clinical relaxation under balanced anesthesia (range 47–124 minutes). Under halothane, isoflurane and enflurane anesthesia, extension of the period of clinical relaxation should be expected

Curator's Comment: The effects of pipecuronium bromide on prejunctional and postjunctional muscarinic receptors were studied in 96 isolated human bronchial rings from 12 patients. Contractile isometric responses to electric field stimulation of pilocarpine-stimulated and nonstimulated M2 muscarinic receptors were compared before and after incubation with the muscle relaxant. The effect on postjunctional muscarinic receptors was studied by comparing acetylcholine concentration-response curves before and after incubation with the muscle relaxant. Pipecuronium bromide inhibited pilocarpine-stimulated prejunctional M2 muscarinic receptors, but it didn’t have significant inhibitory effect on nonstimulated M2 muscarinic receptors and on postjunctional M3 muscarinic receptors.
