Sintesi

Aminoglycosides have intrinsic neuromuscular blocking activity and can potentiate nondepolarising blockers such as cisatracurium. This can prolong paralysis and delay recovery of spontaneous breathing, with a risk of apnoea.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Amikacin and Cisatracurium can interact in a way that may be serious. Using them together is sometimes necessary, but it needs a deliberate decision by the prescriber, a plan for monitoring, and clear advice on the warning signs to watch for.

Amikacin belongs to Anti Bacterial; Cisatracurium belongs to Musculoskeletal.

Livello di evidenza: High

Perché avviene

Aminoglycoside reduction of presynaptic acetylcholine release and postsynaptic sensitivity, additive to nondepolarising blockade.

Cosa fare
