According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the room-temperature stable, unbuffered
rocuronium injection formulation for intravenous administration comprises of 1% w / v of
rocuronium bromide, a pH adjusting agent comprising
hydrochloric acid at a concentration between 12.5 mMol and 20 mMol for the adjustment of pH between 3.5 to 4.5 and a quantity sufficient of water to make the formulation to 1 mL. The proposed formulation of the present disclosure is stabilized through optimization of pH of the formulation using only
hydrochloric acid and / or
sodium hydroxide as the pH adjusting agents without use of any buffering agents is suitable for
moist heat sterilization. Further, the
rocuronium injection formulation of the present disclosure contains lower than 3% of rocuronium related
compound C, more preferably less than 2% over the stability period at
room temperature conditions.
