Abstract
|
|
|
|
Propofol is a well-known ultra-short acting intravenous anesthetic agent for induction and maintenance of general anesthesia. Since its introduction into the market in the mid 1980s, this is the seventh report on propofol dependence in the literature. Of these, only two cases of propofol abuse have been previously reported in laypersons. We are reporting the case of a lay female who has dependence on propofol, and this is the first lay case in Asia.
