succinylcholine and Drug Overdose

succinylcholine has been researched along with Drug Overdose in 4 studies

Succinylcholine: A quaternary skeletal muscle relaxant usually used in the form of its bromide, chloride, or iodide. It is a depolarizing relaxant, acting in about 30 seconds and with a duration of effect averaging three to five minutes. Succinylcholine is used in surgical, anesthetic, and other procedures in which a brief period of muscle relaxation is called for.
succinylcholine : A quaternary ammonium ion that is the bis-choline ester of succinic acid.

Drug Overdose: Accidental or deliberate use of a medication or street drug in excess of normal dosage.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Anaesthetic agents can result in CA by 1) overdose (absolute, relative), 2) anaphylactoid/anaphylactic reactions, 3) specific effects (acetylcholine-like effect, hyperkalaemia and malignant hyperthermia for succinylcholine; vagal effect of vecuronium and atracurium; cardiotoxicity of bupivacaine) and 4) drug interaction."4.78[Cardiac arrest during anesthesia and recovery period].
