Zyvec-4Mg Inj
About Zyvec-4Mg Inj
Zyvec-4Mg Inj belongs to the class of neuromuscular blocking agents. It is mainly used as an adjuvant to general anaesthesia to aid in endotracheal intubation and to give skeletal muscle relaxation during surgery or mechanical breathing.
Zyvec-4Mg Inj contains Vecuronium bromide. It relaxes the muscles by blocking the impulses from the nerves.
Zyvec-4Mg Inj will be administered only in a hospital setting by an experienced clinician or an anaesthetist. This medicine could occasionally have undesirable side effects, such as skeletal muscle weakness, prolonged skeletal muscle paralysis, respiration insufficiency or apnea, and bronchospasm/respiratory depression. Your doctor will immediately address these issues if they emerge during your procedure.
Zyvec-4Mg Inj is not recommended for patients known to be hypersensitive to it. Zyvec-4Mg Inj should be used in pregnant women only if clinically needed, and the benefits outweigh the risks.
