AbstractPropofol is a sedative-hypnotic intravenous anesthetic agent that has gained wide use in outpatient oral and maxillofacial surgery since its clinical introduction in 1985. Propofol has several therapeutic advantages that make it an excellent choice for use in all phases of general anesthesia and conscious sedation. It is associated with minimal side effects, a controllable anesthetic state, and rapid recovery. This review of propofol discusses its pharmacologic character, administration, and side effects and presents anesthetic drug interaction information and comparisons.
