Important
about Succinyl choline:
• Succinylcholine is a depolarizing MR.
• Succinylcholine causes Hyperkalemia
• Succinylcholine causes muscle pain
• Succinyleholine increases Intraocular pressure
• Succinyicholine increases intragastric pressure
• Succinylcholine increases Intracranial pressure
• Succinylcholine triggers Malignant Hyperthermia
• Succinyicholine causes vagal stimulation
• Succinylcholine is the shortest acting MR
• Succinylcholine causes dual-biphasic block
Succinylcholine has shortest duration of action due to rapid hydrolysis by
PSEUDOCHOLINESTERASE.
