General Description

2,2,2-Trichloroethyl 4-(aminomethyl)piperidine-1-carboxylate, also known as etomidate, is a medication used for the induction of anesthesia. It belongs to the class of drugs known as general anesthetics and works by affecting the balance of neurotransmitters in the brain. Etomidate is administered intravenously and has a rapid onset of action, with a duration of effect lasting only a few minutes. It is known for its minimal cardiovascular and respiratory effects, making it a preferred choice for patients with compromised cardiac or respiratory function. However, it can also cause adrenal suppression and has potential for causing nausea and vomiting after administration.
