Can succinylcholine be used in folks who are out of the acute phase of a burn (50 plus years later)?

In researching your question I found this .

"Succinylcholine is safe on the day of the burn and one year after the burn, but never between the two." This will avoid unnecessary life-threatening complications that may result from hyperkalemia or hyperthermia.

Talk to your doctor or specialist.
