The molecule is an octasaccharide derivative that is gamma-cyclodextrin in which all eight primary hydroxy groups are replaced by 2-(carboxyethyl)sulfanyl groups. Used (as the octasodium salt) for reversal of neuromuscular blockade induced by rocuronium and vecuronium in adults undergoing surgery. It has a role as a neuromuscular agent. It is an octasaccharide derivative and an organic sulfide. It derives from a gamma-cyclodextrin. It is a conjugate acid of a sugammadex(8-).
