For children 8 years of age or less, pre-treat with Atropine 0.02 mg/kg minimum 0.1 mg, maximum 0.5 mg IV/IO. Atropine should also be given to all patients prior to a second dose of Succinylcholine. If the patient's weight is uncertain, it is better to err on the side of a larger dose. ................
