Description :
Propofol injection:
Propofol is a fast-acting intravenous anesthetic used to induce and maintain general anesthesia or sedation during medical procedures and surgeries. It works by depressing the activity of the brain and central nervous system, producing a state of unconsciousness or calm sedation.
Propofol is commonly used for induction of anesthesia before surgery, maintenance of anesthesia during surgery, and sedation in intensive care units (ICU) for patients who require mechanical ventilation. It is also used for short medical procedures such as endoscopy.
Due to its rapid onset and short duration of action, Propofol allows for quick recovery once the infusion is stopped. It should always be administered by trained healthcare professionals in a controlled medical setting, as it can affect breathing and blood pressure.
