Summary: On this episode of the Real Life Pharmacology podcast, I breakdown propofol pharmacology. <br> <br> <br> <br> Propofol is a CNS depressant that is used for general anesthesia. <br> <br> <br> <br> I discuss propofol infusion syndrome in this episode and what to look out for clinically. <br> <br> <br> <br> Adding a benzodiazepine or opioid to propofol may have a synergistic effect and the propofol dose may need to be reduced.
