What Experts Say

Isoflurane is a widely used inhaled anesthetic that keeps patients unconscious and still during surgery. It is delivered as a vapour mixed with oxygen through a calibrated vaporiser, allowing the anesthetist to adjust the depth of anesthesia moment to moment.

Anesthetists value isoflurane for its predictable action and smooth control. It is almost always used alongside other agents for pain relief and muscle relaxation as part of a complete anesthetic plan.

This is strictly a hospital medicine given by trained anesthesia specialists with full monitoring of breathing, heart function and oxygen levels. It is never used outside a controlled operating environment.
