What is Sugammadex Vivanta
This medication contains the active ingredient sugammadex. Sugammadex is considered aSelective Relaxant Binding Agentas it only works with specific muscle relaxants, bromide of rocuronium or bromide of vecuronium.
What is Sugammadex Vivanta used for
If you need to undergo surgery, your muscles must be completely relaxed, which facilitates the surgeon's operation. For this, during general anesthesia, they will give you medications to relax your muscles. They are calledmuscle relaxants, and for example, bromide of rocuronium and bromide of vecuronium are examples. As these medications also block the muscles of respiration, you will need help breathing (artificial respiration) during and after your operation until you can breathe on your own again.
Sugammadex is used to accelerate muscle recovery after surgery so that, again, you can breathe on your own sooner. It does this by combining with bromide of rocuronium or bromide of vecuronium in your body. It can be used in adults as long as bromide of rocuronium or bromide of vecuronium is used and in children and adolescents (between 2 and 17 years), when bromide of rocuronium is used for a moderate level of relaxation.
