Basic Anaesthesia Drugs - Opioids

Here is our brief guide to opioids in anaesthesia.
We cover morphine, fentanyl, alfentanil, remifentanil and iv oxycodone.

There are so many facts you can learn about these very effective and potentially lethal medications, but we want you to have a pragmatic framework in your first rotation in anaesthesia.

We go through the essentials!
Dose, onset, offsets special features, concerns and literally how we use these medications in anaesthesia practice.
