Rx Isoflurane 250 ml

Isoflurane RX Only For Dogs, Horses Phoenix Pharmaceuticals Isoflurane inhalation anesthetic is for use in dogs and horses. Phoenix Pharmaceuticals Isoflurane is a nonflammable, nonexplosive general inhalation anesthetic agent that helps maintain levels of anesthesia by inhalation. This item is NON-RETURNABLE and NON-REFUNDABLE. - CAUTIONS/WARNINGS:Keep out of reach of children. Federal law restricts this drug to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian. Operating rooms should be provided with adequate ventilation to prevent the accumulation of anesthetic vapors. Store at room temperature (15°-30°C (59°-86°F). Not for use in horses intended for food In the event of overdosage, or what may appear to be overdosage, the following action should be taken: Stop drug administration, establish that the airway is clear and initiate assisted or controlled ventilation with pure oxygen as circumstances dictate. Increasing depth of anesthesia with Isoflurane, USP may increase hypotension and respiratory depression. The electroencephalographic pattern associated with deep anesthesia is characterized by burst suppression, spiking, and isoelectric periods. Since levels of anesthesia may be altered easily and rapidly, only vaporizers producing predictable percentage concentrations of isoflurane should be used (see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION). The action of nondepolarizing relaxants is augmented by isoflurane. Less than the usual amounts of these drugs should be used. If the usual amounts of nondepolarizing relaxants are given, the time for recovery from myoneural blockade will be longer in the presence of isoflurane than in the presence of other commonly used anesthetics. - DIRECTIONS:Premedication: A premedication regimen, which may be employed depending upon the patient status, to avert excitement during induction, might include an anticholinergic, a tranquilizer, a muscle relaxant, and a short-acting barbiturate. Inspired Concentration: The delivered concentration of Isoflurane, USP should be known. Isoflurane may be vaporized using a flow-through vaporizer specifically calibrated for Isoflurane. Vaporizers delivering a saturated vapor which then is diluted may also be used. Induction: Horses: Inspired concentrations of 3.0 to 5.0% isoflurane alone with oxygen following a barbiturate anesthetic induction are usually employed to induce surgical anesthesia in the horse. Dogs: Inspired concentrations of 2.0 to 2.5% isoflurane alone with oxygen following a barbiturate anesthetic induction are usually employed to induce surgical anesthesia in the dog. These concentrations can be expected to produce surgical anesthesia in 5 to 10 minutes. Maintenance: Horses: Surgical levels of anesthesia in the horse may be sustained with a 1.5 to 1.8% concentration of isoflurane in oxygen. Dogs: Surgical levels of anesthesia in the dog may be sustained with a 1.5 to 1.8% concentration of isoflurane in oxygen. The level of blood pressure during maintenance is an inverse function of isoflurane concentration in the absence of other complicating problems. Excessive decreases, unless related to hypovolemia, may be due to depth of anesthesia and in such instances may be corrected by lightening the level of anesthesia. Usage in pregnancy: Reproduction studies have been performed in mice and rats with no evidence of fetal malformation attributable to isoflurane. Adequate data concerning the safe use of isoflurane in pregnant and breeding horses and dogs have not been obtained. - INGREDIENTS:Active ingredient: Contains 99.99% Isoflurane. Isoflurane is a clear, colorless stable liquid containing no additives or chemical stabilizers. Isoflurane has a mildly pungent, musty, ethereal odor. Samples stored in indirect sunlight in clear, colorless glass for five years, as well as samples directly exposed for 30 hours to a 2 amp, 115 volt, 60 cycle long wave U.V. light were unchanged in composition as determined by gas chromatography. Isoflurane in one normal sodium methoxide-methanol solution, a strong base, for over six months consumed essentially no alkali, indicative of strong base stability. Isoflurane does not decompose in the presence of soda lime (at normal operating temperatures), and does not attack aluminum, tin, brass, iron or copper. - HEIGHT(INCHES): 1.000 - WIDTH(INCHES):1.000 - LENGTH(INCHES):1.000
