Critical care pharmaceuticals

Critical care pharmaceuticals are medications used to treat patients in intensive care units (ICUs) who are severely ill. They include drugs that support vital organs like the heart and lungs, manage infections, control pain, and stabilize blood pressure. These medications are administered under precise supervision because patients are often unstable, requiring careful dosing and monitoring to ensure effectiveness and safety. Their primary goal is to keep critical functions working while the underlying illness is treated or recovered from.
