How Forane works
Forane is put into a special anaesthetic machine (vaporiser) where it becomes a gas. Thereafter, it mixes with the oxygen that you breathe in, and induces reversible loss of consciousness. This allows surgical procedures to be carried out without pain and distress.
Brief Description
Indication
General anaesthesia
Adult Dose
Anesthesia Induction & Maintenance
Use calibrated vaporizer
Induction: 1.5-3% can produce surgical anesthesia in 7-10 minutes
Maintenance: 1-2.5% with nitrous oxide
Additional 0.5-1% may be needed if given with oxygen alone
Child Dose
Safety & efficacy not established
Contraindication
Known or suspected susceptibility to malignant hyperthermia. Porphyria.
Mode of Action
Isoflurane, a volatile halogenated anaesthetic, causes a reversible loss of consciousness and pain sensations, suppression of voluntary motor activity, modification of autonomic reflexes, and depression of the respiratory and the CV system.
Precaution
Perioperative hyperkalaemia; raised intracranial pressure. May impair ability to drive or operate machinery. Pregnancy and lactation. Do not allow carbon dioxide absorbents in anaesthetic apparatus to dry out when delivering isoflurane to minimise the risk of developing elevated carboxyhaemoglobin levels.
Lactation: use caution

Dose-dependent hypotension,Arrhythmias,Malignant hyperthermia (rare),Elevations in white blood count,May decrease creatinine and increase BUN,Ileus, severe (fatal),Hepatic dysfunction (postoperative period) (rare),Respiratory depression may occur (rare)
Interaction
Enhances effects of neuromuscular blockers. May sensitise the myocardium to adrenaline and other sympathomimetics. Enhances hypotensive effects of ACE inhibitors, TCAs, MAOIs, antihypertensives, antipsychotics or beta-blockers. May have synergistic effects with CNS depressants.
