Fluothane
Fluothane is a medicine used to put patients to sleep during surgery, known as an anesthetic. Its active ingredient is halothane, a vapor that is inhaled to induce unconsciousness, allowing doctors to perform procedures without pain or awareness. Fluothane works by affecting the brain and nervous system to reduce sensations and responses. It’s carefully administered and monitored by medical professionals to ensure safety throughout the operation. While effective, it’s used less frequently now due to advances in anesthetic options, but it remains an important part of medical history and anesthesia practice.
