Vaporizers

Use of Sojourn™ Sevoflurane with Vaporizers

The use of Sojourn™ sevoflurane in an Abbott™ or Baxter™ owned vaporizer may violate the contractual rights of Abbott Laboratories™ or Baxter Healthcare Corporation™. Piramal Healthcare's Sojourn™ sevoflurane is pharmaceutically and therapeutically equivalent to Ultane® and Baxter's™ sevoflurane, and dosing and administration of the product are the same. Therefore, Piramal Healthcare's Sojourn™ sevoflurane can be delivered in the commercially available makes and models of sevoflurane vaporizers, such as those manufactured by GE Healthcare™ (formerly Datex-Ohmeda) and Draeger™. To ensure that your use of sevoflurane does not violate Abbott™ or Baxter's™ contractual rights, check to see if your current vaporizer contract (if any) restricts your use of competitive sevoflurane.

Ownership matters! Piramal Healthcare would like to supply you with vaporizers, and give you the option to own your vaporizer through normal purchases of Sojourn™ sevoflurane, ensuring that you have a choice in securing competitive prices and service levels in purchasing sevoflurane.
