Sufentanil is a potent synthetic opioid analgesic belonging to the fentanyl class. It is primarily used as an adjunct in anesthesia and for analgesia during surgery in adults and children, especially in situations requiring rapid onset and short duration of action. Sufentanil is approved for medical use and commonly used in hospital settings for pain management and anesthesia.
Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic parameters reported for healthy adult individuals, male and female, with intravenous administration; typical values from multiple clinical studies in perioperative settings.
