Detail
Product Overview:
Diprivan® (Propofol) 1% is an intravenous anesthetic agent used for the induction and maintenance of general anesthesia, sedation for mechanically ventilated adults, and monitored anesthesia care (MAC) sedation. The product contains Propofol at a concentration of 10 mg per mL, packaged in a 10 mL Single Dose Vial (SDV), ensuring precise dosing for each patient administration.
Key Features:
- Active Ingredient: Propofol 1% (10 mg/mL).
- Presentation: 10 mL Single Dose Vial (SDV) for sterile administration.
- Indications: Ideal for the induction and maintenance of general anesthesia, providing sedation for ventilated patients in intensive care settings, and suitable for sedation during diagnostic and surgical procedures.
- Mechanism of Action: Propofol works by enhancing the effects of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter in the brain, resulting in sedative and hypnotic effects.
- Onset and Duration: Rapid onset of action, typically within 30 seconds, and a short duration, allowing for controlled sedation and anesthesia.
- Safety Profile: Non-irritant to veins, reducing the risk of pain on injection. Contains an emulsified formulation to enhance solubility and stability.
Intended Use: Diprivan® is designed for healthcare professionals for use in hospitals and surgical centers. It is suitable for short-term sedation and general anesthesia in adults and pediatric patients, and for sedation of ventilated patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). The product provides effective sedation with rapid onset and easy titration.
Benefits:
- Controlled Sedation: Enables rapid induction of anesthesia with a predictable recovery time.
- Flexible Dosing: Allows easy adjustment of dosage based on the patient’s response and the depth of sedation required.
- Minimal Side Effects: Generally well-tolerated with fewer post-anesthesia complications compared to other anesthetic agents.
- Sterile and Ready-to-Use: Packaged in a sterile, single-dose vial to maintain the highest standards of safety and efficacy.
