General anesthetics are essential for inducing a state of unconsciousness and loss of sensation during major surgeries and medical interventions. They are administered intravenously or via inhalation. Intravenous general anesthetics, such as propofol and etomidate, are rapidly acting and are used to induce anesthesia. Inhaled general anesthetics, including sevoflurane and desflurane, maintain the state of anesthesia during surgery.
