Etomidate injection is a medication used for anesthesia induction, paralysis, and sedation during surgeries or medical procedures. Etomidate injection is a type of general anesthetic and sedative agent that is primarily used in hospitals and medical settings. Etomidate injection works by slowing down the activity of the central nervous system, causing a state of unconsciousness and relaxation in the patient.

Etomidate is typically administered intravenously by a healthcare professional and should only be used under medical supervision.

Etomidate injection is primarily used to induce anesthesia before surgery or other medical procedures. It is also used to sedate patients who are receiving mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit (ICU). Additionally, it can be used as an emergency treatment for seizures or to assist with reducing high body temperatures in cases of extreme fever.
