Dormax Injection 15 mg/3 ml contains Midazolam 15 mg/3 ml, a short-acting benzodiazepine used for procedural sedation, induction of anesthesia, preoperative sedation, and the management of acute seizures. It produces calming, sedative, anxiolytic, muscle-relaxant, and anticonvulsant effects by acting on the central nervous system. Dormax Injection is widely used in hospitals, operating rooms, intensive care units (ICUs), and emergency settings where rapid and controlled sedation is required.

Midazolam has a rapid onset of action and a relatively short duration, making it suitable for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures such as endoscopy, bronchoscopy, minor surgical procedures, and dental procedures. It may also be used as part of general anesthesia or for sedation of critically ill patients receiving mechanical ventilation.

Dormax Injection should only be administered by trained healthcare professionals in medical facilities equipped with appropriate monitoring and resuscitation equipment due to the risk of respiratory depression and cardiovascular effects.

Composition

Each 3 ml injection contains:

• Midazolam 15 mg

How Dormax Injection Works

Midazolam enhances the activity of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain. By increasing GABA activity, it slows nerve transmission within the central nervous system, producing sedation, relaxation, reduced anxiety, muscle relaxation, and anticonvulsant effects.

Its rapid onset and short duration allow healthcare providers to achieve effective sedation while enabling patients to recover relatively quickly after the procedure.

Indications

Dormax Injection is indicated for:

• Preoperative sedation
• Conscious sedation before diagnostic or therapeutic procedures

Dosage and Administration

Dormax Injection should be administered only by qualified healthcare professionals.

• It may be given by intravenous (IV), intramuscular (IM), or other approved routes, depending on the clinical indication.
• The dosage is individualized based on the patient's age, body weight, medical condition, and response to treatment.
• Continuous monitoring of respiratory function, blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygen saturation is essential during and after administration.
• Emergency resuscitation equipment should always be readily available.
