WHAT IS MEDICAL NITROUS OXIDE AND WHAT IS IT USED FOR?
Medical nitrous oxide is an anæsthesia gas used for pain relief.
It is usually given with another anæsthetic gas and medical oxygen
during surgery via a tube placed down your throat by
an anæsthetist or given with medical oxygen via a mask by your doctor
or dentist.
Medical nitrous oxide works by causing unconsciousness (deep sleep)
before and during surgery and by relieving pain for
certain procedures.
Ask your doctor if you have any questions about why medical nitrous
oxide has been prescribed for you. This medicine is
available with a doctor’s prescription only.
