A
short acting sedative hypnotic used in
short procedures and
minor surgeries. It is God's gift the patients. It usually causes minor stingy at the injection site but this is of
little concern because A) Your usually pumped up on either diazepam or midazolam or B) By the
time you go to brush off the stingy with your hand your already being deeply sedated. Apon awakening of it you feel refreshed, as if your sole was gently removed and stroked and messaged by angels, you don't care that nurses are poking and prodding you just enjoy yourself. Contrary to its effects it is NOT to be used as a sleep agent as it doesn't put one to sleep it puts one in a coma. It is also a very dangerous drug if not used by a trained anesthesiologist as it depresses the CNS....do not abuse this drug no matter what you will simply stop breathing and
die.
Anesthesiologist: Count down from
10, this might
burn a little
Patient:
