DESFLURANE is a gas anesthetic used for general anesthesia. It is inhaled through the respiratory tract, quickly induces and maintains anesthesia, and is suitable for adults and children. DESFLURANE has a rapid onset of action and recovery time, allowing rapid clearance from the body after surgery. In Hong Kong, DESFLURANE is commonly used in patients who require short-term surgery, such as elective or emergency surgery. During use, medical staff will monitor the patient's breathing and heart rate to ensure anesthesia effectiveness and safety. DESFLURANE may cause side effects such as nausea, vomiting, and headache, but these are usually short-lived. Before using DESFLURANE, patients should inform their doctor about allergic reactions, drug use, etc. to avoid adverse reactions. Please follow your doctor's advice and guidance to ensure safe and effective use of DESFLURANE.
How to use: DESFLURANE is a general anesthetic drug, usually administered by inhalation of gas. During the operation, medical staff will use special anesthesia equipment to evaporate and convert DESFLURANE into a gas, which the patient inhales through breathing. It is necessary to ensure that the patient is in an appropriate anesthesia environment before use, and medical staff will monitor the patient's depth of anesthesia.
Dosage Guidelines: The dose of DESFLURANE will be based on the patient's age, weight and type of surgery. In general, the starting dose for adults is a DESFLURRANE gas concentration of 3-6%, which can subsequently be adjusted as needed. For children, the dose is usually calculated based on their weight, and healthcare professionals will adjust the dose appropriately based on the child's condition.
During use of DESFLURANE, patients should follow the instructions of their healthcare provider and work closely with their breathing. During use, some side effects may occur, such as hypotension or respiratory depression, which will be dealt with by medical staff in a timely manner. While taking DESFLURANE, patients should avoid activities that require high levels of alertness, such as driving or operating machinery. If patients have any questions or discomfort, they should promptly inform medical staff.

Common side effects include: dizziness, nausea, vomiting, dry throat, sore throat, muscle pain, drowsiness, blurred vision, rapid heartbeat, blood pressure changes, difficulty breathing, etc. Serious side effects may include: allergic reactions, cardiac arrhythmias, respiratory depression, hypotension, central nervous system depression, etc. When using DESFLURANE, you should strictly follow your doctor's instructions and avoid adjusting the dosage or frequency on your own.
