Adios will now calculate statistics on the usage of methoxyflurane to monitor anomalies in usage.
What is Methoxyflurane? Methoxyflurane, commercially known as Penthrox®, is a volatile fluorinated hydrocarbon widely used as an inhaled analgesic. It is particularly effective for the emergency relief of moderate to severe pain in conscious adults with trauma-related injuries. Methoxyflurane is self-administered via a handheld inhaler, making it a convenient option for rapid pain relief in pre-hospital and emergency settings.
Why is Methoxyflurane Liable to Abuse? Although reports of abuse are rare, the possibility of CNS effects (sedation, euphoria, amnesia, ability to concentrate, altered sensorimotor co-ordination and change in mood) may be seen as a risk factor and potentially liable to abuse.
