triamcinolone rapacuronium
Applies to: Triamcot (triamcinolone) and rapacuronium
MONITOR: Corticosteroids may inhibit or enhance the action of nondepolarizing skeletal muscle relaxants. The mechanism is unknown. In addition, the risk of myopathy may be increased after long-term use of neuromuscular blocking agents and corticosteroids.
MANAGEMENT: Patients should be closely monitored for altered neuromuscular blockade and signs of myopathy. Dose adjustments of the muscle relaxant may be required. The benefit-to-risk ratio should be considered and the duration of administration of the neuromuscular blocking agent should be limited as much as clinically feasible.
