About Rocpure 50 mg Injection 5 ml

Rocpure 50 mg Injection 5 ml belongs to the class of medications called nondepolarizing neuromuscular blockers or muscle relaxants, commonly used to produce muscle relaxation to aid surgical procedures and ventilation of the lungs in elective and critical situations.

Rocpure 50 mg Injection 5 ml contains Rocuronium bromide. It relaxes the muscles by blocking the impulses from the nerves. Thus, it is easy to aid surgical procedures and ventilation of the lungs in elective and critical situations.

Rocuronium bromide injection is for intravenous use only. Experienced clinicians or trained individuals will administer it. Transient hypotension, hypertension, feeling tired and weak or dizzy are undesirable consequences during your procedure, just like other general anaesthetics, since your anaesthetist will immediately address any issues that emerge during your procedure.

Rocpure 50 mg Injection 5 ml is recommended not to use if you are hypersensitive to Rocuronium bromide or other similar anaesthetics. Extreme caution should be maintained while using Rocpure 50 mg Injection 5 ml with a history of patients with burns, Electrolyte Abnormalities, Asthma, Cardiovascular Disease, liver disease, myasthenia gravis, Paralytic Disorder, and Pulmonary Impairment. Rocuronium bromide should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. So, before taking the Rocpure 50 mg Injection 5 ml, let your doctor know about all your medical conditions, sensitivities, and all medications you are using. Avoid breastfeeding for a certain period (At least 6 hours) after receiving a Rocuronium bromide injection as per the doctor's instructions. Rocuronium bromide should be used with caution in pregnant women, so inform your doctor If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby. It is recommended not to drive or operate heavy machinery for a certain period as this medication may make you tired, weak, or dizzy.

Uses of Rocpure 50 mg Injection 5 ml

Skeletal muscle relaxation during surgery or other medical procedures

Directions for Use

Rocpure 50 mg Injection 5 ml will be given to you by your anaesthetist. It is given intravenously (into a vein), either as single injections or as a continuous infusion (a drip).

Medicinal Benefits

Rocuronium bromide belongs to the class of drugs known as muscle relaxants. Muscle relaxants are used as part of general anaesthesia during an operation. When undergoing surgery, your muscles must be entirely relaxed. This makes surgery easier for the surgeon. If you are under anaesthesia, rocuronium bromide may be used to facilitate the placement of a tube into your trachea (windpipe) for artificial ventilation (mechanical help of breathing). Rocuronium bromide can also be utilized to relax muscles in Intensive Care Units.
