Dosage & Administration
2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION • Dosing is based on actual body weight ( 2.1 ) • Monitor for twitch responses to determine the timing and dose for sugammadex injection administration. ( 2.1 ) • Administer as a single bolus injection. ( 2.1 ) For rocuronium and vecuronium: • 4 mg/kg is recommended if spontaneous recovery of the twitch response has reached 1 to 2 post-tetanic counts (PTC) and there are no twitch responses to train-of-four (TOF) stimulation. ( 2.2 ) • 2 mg/kg is recommended if spontaneous recovery has reached the reappearance of the second twitch in response to TOF stimulation. ( 2.2 ) For rocuronium only: • 16 mg/kg is recommended if there is a clinical need to reverse neuromuscular blockade soon (approximately 3 minutes) after administration of a single dose of 1.2 mg/kg of rocuronium. Immediate reversal in pediatric patients has not been studied. ( 2.2 ) 2.1 Important Dosing and Administration Information Sugammadex injection dosing is based on actual body weight. Sugammadex injection, for intravenous use, should be administered by trained healthcare providers familiar with the use, actions, characteristics, and complications of neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) and neuromuscular block reversal agents. Doses and timing of sugammadex injection administration should be based on monitoring for twitch responses and the extent of spontaneous recovery that has occurred. Administer sugammadex intravenously as a single bolus injection. The bolus injection may be given over 10 seconds, into an existing intravenous line. Sugammadex injection has only been administered as a single bolus injection in clinical trials. From the time of sugammadex injection administration until complete recovery of neuromuscular function, monitor the patient to assure adequate ventilation and maintenance of a patent airway. Satisfactory recovery should be determined through assessment of skeletal muscle tone and respiratory measurements in addition to the response to peripheral nerve stimulation. The recommended dose of sugammadex injection does not depend on the anesthetic regimen. Preparation of dilution for pediatric use: Sugammadex injection 100 mg/mL may be diluted to a concentration of 10 mg/mL, using 0.9% sodium chloride injection, USP, to increase the accuracy of dosing in the pediatric population. • To prepare the required dose, aseptically transfer all the contents of the 2 mL vial of sugammadex injection 2 mL single-dose vials containing 200 mg sugammadex (100 mg/mL) to a bottle (or intravenous bag) containing 18 mL of 0.9% sodium chloride injection, to achieve a final concentration of 10 mg/mL sugammadex. The diluted solution should be used immediately. • Sugammadex injection is a single-dose sterile solution without preservatives. Discard any unused portion from the vial. 2.2 Recommended Dosing Sugammadex injection can be used to reverse different levels of rocuronium- or vecuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade. For rocuronium and vecuronium: • A dose of 4 mg/kg sugammadex is recommended if spontaneous recovery of the twitch response has reached 1 to 2 post-tetanic counts (PTC) and there are no twitch responses to train-of-four (TOF) stimulation following rocuronium- or vecuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade [see Warnings and Precautions (5.8) ]. • A dose of 2 mg/kg sugammadex injection is recommended if spontaneous recovery has reached the reappearance of the second twitch (T 2 ) in response to TOF stimulation following rocuronium- or vecuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade [see Warnings and Precautions (5.8) ]. For rocuronium only: • A dose of 16 mg/kg sugammadex is recommended if there is a clinical need to reverse neuromuscular blockade soon (approximately 3 minutes) after administration of a single dose of 1.2 mg/kg of rocuronium. The efficacy of the 16 mg/kg dose of sugammadex following administration of vecuronium has not been studied. Immediate reversal in pediatric patients has not been studied [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ]. 2.3 Drug Compatibility May inject sugammadex injection into the intravenous line of a running infusion with the following intravenous solutions: • 0.9% sodium chloride • 5% dextrose • 0.45% sodium chloride and 2.5% dextrose • 5% dextrose in 0.9% sodium chloride • isolyte P with 5% dextrose • Ringer's lactate solution • Ringer's solution Ensure the infusion line is adequately flushed (e.g., with 0.9% sodium chloride) between administration of sugammadex injection and other drugs. Do not mix sugammadex injection with other products except those listed above. Sugammadex injection is physically incompatible with verapamil, ondansetron, and ranitidine. Visually inspect parenteral drug products for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever the solution and container permit.
Adverse Reactions
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following serious adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling: • Anaphylaxis and Hypersensitivity [see Contraindications (4), Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] • Marked Bradycardia [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] • Most common adverse reactions (reported in ≥10% of adult patients at a 2, 4, or 16 mg/kg sugammadex dose and higher than the placebo rate): vomiting, pain, nausea, hypotension, and headache. ( 6.1 ) • Most common adverse reactions (reported in ≥10% of pediatric patients 2 to <17 years of age at sugammadex doses of 2 or 4 mg/kg) were pain, vomiting, and nausea.

Adult Patients The data described below reflect 2914 subjects exposed to 2, 4, or 16 mg/kg sugammadex and 544 to placebo in pooled Phase 1 to 3 studies. The population was 18 to 92 years old, 47% male and 53% female, 34% ASA (American Society of Anesthesiologists) Class 1, 51% ASA Class 2, and 14% ASA Class 3, and 82% Caucasian. Most subjects received a single dose of sugammadex 2 mg/kg or 4 mg/kg. Adverse reactions reported in ≥10% of patients at a 2, 4, or 16 mg/kg sugammadex dose with a rate higher than the placebo rate are: vomiting, pain, nausea, hypotension, and headache. All adverse reactions occurring in ≥2% of subjects treated with sugammadex and more often than placebo for adult subjects who received anesthesia and/or neuromuscular blocking agent in pooled Phase 1 to 3 studies are presented in Table 2.

A system organ class or specific adverse event appears in this table only if its incidence in one or more of the columns meets the incidence criterion in the table title, after rounding. Anaphylaxis and Hypersensitivity Hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, have occurred in both premarketing clinical trials and in post-marketing spontaneous reports. In a dedicated hypersensitivity study in healthy volunteers, the frequency of anaphylaxis was 0.3% [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ]. These reactions varied from isolated skin reactions to serious systemic reactions (i.e., anaphylaxis, anaphylactic shock) and have occurred in patients with no prior exposure to sugammadex. Symptoms associated with these reactions can include: flushing, urticaria, erythematous rash, (severe) hypotension, tachycardia, swelling of tongue, swelling of pharynx, bronchospasm and pulmonary obstructive events. Severe hypersensitivity reactions can be fatal. A randomized, double-blind study examined the incidence of drug hypersensitivity reactions in healthy volunteers given up to 3 doses of placebo (N=76), sugammadex 4 mg/kg (N=151) or sugammadex 16 mg/kg (N=148). Reports of suspected hypersensitivity were adjudicated by a blinded committee. The incidence of adjudicated hypersensitivity was 1%, 7% and 9% in the placebo, sugammadex 4 mg/kg and sugammadex 16 mg/kg groups, respectively. There were no reports of anaphylaxis after placebo or sugammadex 4 mg/kg. There was a single case of adjudicated anaphylaxis after the first dose of sugammadex 16 mg/kg. The frequency of anaphylaxis for the 299 healthy volunteers treated with intravenous sugammadex was 0.3%. There was no evidence of increased frequency or severity of hypersensitivity with repeat dosing. In a previous study of similar design, there were three adjudicated cases of anaphylaxis, all after sugammadex 16 mg/kg (incidence 1% in the 298 healthy volunteers treated with sugammadex). Recurrence of Neuromuscular Blockade In clinical studies with subjects treated with rocuronium or vecuronium, where sugammadex was administered using a dose labeled for the depth of neuromuscular blockade (N=2022), an incidence of <1% was observed for recurrence of neuromuscular blockade as based on neuromuscular monitoring or clinical evidence [see Warnings and Precautions (5.8) ]. Bronchospasm In one dedicated clinical trial and in post-marketing data, in patients with a history of pulmonary complications [see Use in Specific Populations (8.9) ], bronchospasm was reported as a possibly related adverse event. Additional pediatric use information is approved for Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC’s BRIDION ® (sugammadex) injection. However, due to Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC’s marketing exclusivity rights, this drug product is not labeled with that information. 6.2 Post-Marketing Experience The following adverse reactions have been identified during post-approval use of sugammadex. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. Cardiac Disorders: Cases of marked bradycardia and bradycardia with cardiac arrest have been observed within minutes after administration of sugammadex [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] . Other cardiac rhythm abnormalities have included atrial fibrillation, atrioventricular block, cardiac/cardiorespiratory arrest, electrocardiographic (ECG) ST segment changes, supraventricular tachycardia/extrasystoles, tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, and ventricular tachycardia. Anaphylaxis associated with ECG ST segment changes (elevation or depression) consistent with myocardial ischemia or coronary spasm has also been reported. General Disorders and Administration Site Conditions : Cases of sugammadex not having the intended effect. Immune System Disorders: Hypersensitivity events including anaphylactic shock, anaphylactic reaction, anaphylactoid reaction, and Type 1 hypersensitivity have been reported [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ]. Respiratory, Thoracic, and Mediastinal Disorders: Events of laryngospasm, dyspnea, wheezing, pulmonary edema, and respiratory arrest have been reported.
