About Isoflurane Liquid

Isoflurane Liquid belongs to the class of medicines called inhalation anaesthetics. It is used to induce general anaesthesia during surgical procedures. General anaesthetics are used to induce unconsciousness, helping to not feel the pain caused due to surgical procedures.

Isoflurane Liquid contains isoflurane, which causes a complete loss of sensation in the body, including loss of consciousness. Thereby, it helps prevent pain perception, allowing surgery to be carried out without pain or distress.

In some cases, Isoflurane Liquid may cause side effects such as chills/shivering, cough, laryngospasm (difficulty breathing or speaking), dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, and vomiting. If these side effects persist or worsen, consult your doctor.

Tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of the components in Isoflurane Liquid . Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Keep your doctor informed about all your health conditions and medications to prevent interactions or side effects.
