Description

Rapacuronium bromide (RAPLON), a nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent, is a negative allosteric modulator of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. Rapacuronium bromide is indicated as an adjunct to general anesthesia to facilitate tracheal intubation and to provide skeletal muscle relaxation during surgical procedures. There were no specific pharmacokinetic studies conducted to examine the drug-drug interactions of RAPLON. Due to the risk of fatal bronchospasm, it was withdrawn from the United States market less than 2 years after its FDA approval.

Route of Administration: Intravenous
Effects of 10 uM rapacuronium on the dissociation rate of high-affinity [3H]ACh binding were measured after 60 min preincubation of membranes with 40 nM [3H]ACh. Dissociation was evoked by the addition of unlabeled ACh at a final concentration of 40 uM, either alone or mixed with 10 uM rapacuronium. The slower phase of [3H]ACh dissociation displayed a rate (koff) in the range of 0.112 (M5) to 0.507 (M2) min-1.
