Are there any advantages in sharing a supply of Dantrium® IV or dantrolene sodium for injection?
No. Minutes count in an MH emergency. The Professional Advisory Council of MHAUS strongly recommends that an adequate supply of Dantrium® IV or dantrolene sodium for injection be available wherever general anesthesia is administered. Responsibility for treatment rests with the facility where the surgery is performed. Sharing is not a good alternative.
