Active Ingredient History
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 Due to the risk of fatal bronchospasm, it was withdrawn from the United States market less than 2 years after its FDA approval. NCATS
