Sugammadex, sold under the brand name Bridion, is a medication used to reverse the neuromuscular blockade of rocuronium and vecuronium.[3] It is used by injection into a vein.[1] Effects generally occur in 2 to 3 minutes.[1]
Common side effects include cough, airway problems as the anesthesia wears off, low blood pressure, and an abnormal heart rate.[4] Other side effects may include anaphylaxis, vomiting, and headache.[1] It is a selective relaxant binding agent (SRBA) which combines with and inactivates certain medications.[1][4]
Sugammadex was approved for medical use in Europe in 2008 and the United States in 2015.[1][4] In the United Kingdom 2,000 mg costs the NHS about £600 as of 2021.[5] This amount in the United States costs about 1,200 USD.[6]
