The best treatment for MH is avoiding triggers. Triggers include but are not limited to volatile inhaled anesthetic gases, succinylcholine, and in some cases heat and/or exercise.
Should a person experience an MH reaction, Dantrolene is the only antidote.
Treatment centers on administering dantrolene and treating symptoms.

When having surgery you should speak to a anesthesiologist first at all times no matter what. No if and or buts. It's a must that you speak to a anesthesiologist..... So they can properly prepare the operating room for you and your surgery. Because people with Malignant Hypothermia are operated on first in the morning in most cases and they have to remove the room of all gases using charcoal filter system and a check list. Some doctors take extra steps and precautions for your care. Also Hospitals keep dantrolene on hand when someone has a allergic reaction to anesthesia. It's now the law for all hospitals to carry 5 vials of Darlene at all time.
