Description

Isoflurane 100mL is a volatile anesthetic agent commonly used for general anesthesia in surgical and medical procedures. This inhalation anesthetic is known for its rapid onset and recovery properties, making it a preferred choice for a variety of clinical settings. Isoflurane is delivered through a vaporizer connected to an anesthesia machine, ensuring precise and controlled administration.

The primary mechanism of action of isoflurane involves enhancing the activity of inhibitory neurotransmitters and reducing the activity of excitatory neurotransmitters in the central nervous system. This action induces a state of reversible unconsciousness and muscle relaxation, facilitating surgical procedures.

Isoflurane is packaged in 100mL amber glass bottles to protect the liquid from light exposure and ensure its chemical stability. The bottle is compatible with calibrated vaporizers to maintain consistent dosing. Common side effects include hypotension, respiratory depression, and nausea during recovery. Rare but serious reactions, such as malignant hyperthermia, require immediate medical intervention.
