Isofast Inhalation Anaesthetic Isoflurane Cisatracurium Besylate
ModerateWhen isoflurane is given with nitrous oxide and oxygen at a level of 1.25 MAC, it can make cisatracurium work for longer. This applies to both the first dose and the later top-up doses. If cisatracurium is being given as a drip, the anaesthetist may also need to run it more slowly. This combination is only used in operating theatres, where the anaesthetist adjusts the doses.
These medicines are often taken together with some care. Your doctor may change a dose, space them apart or check on you more often. Make sure your doctor and pharmacist know you take both.
What to do: This is used only in operating theatres, where the anaesthetist adjusts the doses. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have questions.
