SPECIAL WARNINGS
The metabolism of birds, and to an extent small mammals, is affected
more profoundly by
decreases in body temperature, due to high surface area to body weight
ratio. Drug
metabolism in reptiles is slow and highly dependent upon environmental
temperature.
The absorption, distribution and elimination of isoflurane are rapid,
and it is eliminated
largely unchanged via the lungs. These characteristics may make it
suitable for groups of
patients including the young or old, or those with impaired hepatic,
renal or cardiac
function, however anaesthetic protocols should be decided on a case by
case basis.
