Propofol Pharmacology
Real Life Pharmacology - Pharmacology Education for Health Care ProfessionalsAbout this episode
On this episode of the Real Life Pharmacology podcast, I breakdown propofol pharmacology. Propofol is a CNS depressant that is used for general anesthesia. I discuss propofol infusion syndrome in this episode and what to look out for clinically. Adding a benzodiazepine or opioid to propofol may have a synergistic effect and the propofol dose may need to be reduced. I discuss important drug interactions on the podcast, be sure to check out my latest project which is a 200+ page book on managing drug interactions in primary care.
