Before Using

Drug information provided by: Merative, Micromedex®

In deciding to use a medicine, the risks of taking the medicine must be weighed against the good it will do. This is a decision you and your doctor will make. For this medicine, the following should be considered:

Allergies

Tell your doctor if you have ever had any unusual or allergic reaction to this medicine or any other medicines. Also tell your health care professional if you have any other types of allergies, such as to foods, dyes, preservatives, or animals. For non-prescription products, read the label or package ingredients carefully.

Pediatric

Appropriate studies performed to date have not demonstrated pediatric-specific problems that would limit the usefulness of Propofol-Lipuro 1% injection to sedate children older than 16 years of age with coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in the ICU.

Appropriate studies performed to date have not demonstrated pediatric-specific problems that would limit the usefulness of Diprivan® injection to induce anesthesia in children 3 years of age and older, and to maintain anesthesia in children 2 months of age and older. Use of this medicine to induce anesthesia in children younger than 3 years of age and to maintain anesthesia in children younger than 2 months of age is not recommended. Safety and efficacy have not been established in children for other approved conditions.

Serious unwanted effects on early brain development of children younger than 3 years of age may occur with repeated or prolonged use of this medicine. Talk to your doctor if you have concerns about this.

Geriatric

Appropriate studies performed to date have not demonstrated geriatric-specific problems that would limit the usefulness of propofol injection in the elderly. However, elderly patients are more likely to have age-related heart or lung disease (eg, low blood pressure, breathing problems), which may require caution and an adjustment in the dose for patients receiving this medicine.
