A member asked:
I was curious as to a hypothetical situation of the side effects/symptoms of the succinylcholine chloride injection administered orally.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dangerous: This is a very potent drug that is given intravenously only. Using it orally there is some possibility of it being absorbed through your mucus membranes. It is really playing with danger to attempt oral administration. Death is one side effect.
