Warnings & precautions in children
Bradycardia is observed more frequently in children and with repeated administration of suxamethonium (in both children and adults). Prior treatment with intravenous atropine or glycopyrronium significantly reduces the incidence and severity of bradycardia. Intramuscular atropine is not effective. Nontreatable cases of cardiac arrest have been described in children in whom neuromuscular disease had not been previously diagnosed. Use extreme caution and monitor extra in infants and children receiving suxamethonium because of increased risk of application in previously undiagnosed muscular disorders or propensity for malignant hyperthermia previously unknown.
