Professional:MONITOR: A single case has been reported in which neostigmine reversal of vecuronium-induced paralysis was delayed in a patient who had taken disopyramide (plasma level 5.1 mcg/mL). The mechanism is unknown, but disopyramide is believed to interfere with pre- and postsynaptic neuromuscular transmission. No data are available for other neuromuscular blockers.
MANAGEMENT: While more data are needed, it is recommended that the clinician be aware of a potential interaction in patients who have taken disopyramide.
