Sugammadex administration in patients with end-stage renal disease: a narrative review with recommendations [PDF]
Due to unknown safety concerns, sugammadex should not be administered to patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). However, because the supply of benzylisoquinolinium-type neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) has been discontinued, rocuronium is the

Resistance to non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents
The authors experienced three cases of the resistance to the nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs), rocuronium. There are many factors that affect NMBAs such as steroid, endocrine or autoimmune diseases which are thyroid disease, parathyroid disease, myasthenia gravis and etc., and anticonvulsant medication.
