Alfentanil Hydrochloride
The hydrochloride salt of alfentanil, an ultra-short-acting synthetic opioid used intravenously during anesthesia to provide analgesia and reduce the amount of other anesthetic medications needed. Its rapid onset and brief duration of action make it particularly valuable for short surgical procedures and procedural sedation.
