O que esta interação significa em palavras simples
Magnesium sulfate and Vecuronium 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.
Por que acontece
Magnesium reduces presynaptic acetylcholine release and decreases postsynaptic sensitivity, adding to competitive blockade by vecuronium.
O que fazer
Reduce the vecuronium dose and titrate with quantitative train-of-four monitoring in patients receiving magnesium. Be prepared for delayed recovery and ventilatory support, and check serum magnesium.
