Succinylcholine - Risk and Safety
| Toxicity | A synthetic muscle relaxant with a curare-like action. Although the selectivity and superficial nature of the paralysis produced by succinylcholine mirrors that of tubocurarine, the specific action is quite different. Succinylcholine is classified as a depolarizing blocking agent, and it blocks acetylcholine receptors by persistent depolarization rather than by the competitive antagonism seen with true curarimimetics. In addition, succinylcholine is inactivated by cholinesterases, limiting the duration of its action. |
