Treatment of Skeletal muscle relaxation during surgery or other medical procedures

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.
