What is Succinylcholine Chloride?
Quelicin (succinylcholine chloride) is a depolarizing skeletal muscle relaxant often used in anesthesia to facilitate intubation and ensure muscle relaxation during surgery or mechanical ventilation. It acts by mimicking the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, binding to acetylcholine receptors and causing an initial muscle contraction followed by sustained relaxation. Quelicin is known for its rapid onset and short duration of action, typically taking effect within a minute and lasting for about 5 to 10 minutes.Side Effects
