Hypnodate Injection belongs to the class of short-acting intravenous anaesthetic agents used to induce general anaesthesia and sedation for short medical procedures. Anesthesia is a medical procedure that reduces pain and discomfort during surgical or medical procedures.
Hypnodate Injection contains Etomidate. It works by blocking the transmission of pain signals from the nerves to the brain.
Hypnodate Injection will be administered only in a hospital setting by an experienced anaesthetist. Etomidate could occasionally cause some undesirable effects during the procedure, just like other general anaesthetics. These include pain or discomfort along the vein where the injection was given, being sick, feeling sick, muscle twitching or jerking, difficulty moving your body, cortisol decreased, rash, lowered blood pressure, dizziness and fainting, breathing faster and/or deeper than normal, and noisy breathing. Your anaesthetist will immediately address any issues that emerge during your procedure.
Hypnodate Injection is recommended not to use if you are hypersensitive to Etomidate or other similar anaesthetics. If you are pregnant, suspect you are pregnant, or believe you may become pregnant, you must notify your doctor before receiving Hypnodate Injection . Breast-feeding should be discontinued during and for 24 hours after treatment with Hypnodate Injection . Before taking Hypnodate Injection , let your doctor know about all your medical conditions, sensitivities, and medications you are using. Patients should not drive or operate heavy machinery for at least 24 hours after receiving Etomidate.
