Comforting Conscious Sedation

With intravenous sedation, an anti-anxiety medication is administered into a vein. By request, you can be given medication to temporarily numb the skin so you don’t even feel a pinch. IV sedation is the most predictable method of sedation in which a deeper level of sedation is desired. Only reversible sedative medications are administered to our patients to increase safety. Also, anti-nausea medications are given to provide maximum comfort. A profound state of relaxation and amnesia can be achieved with this state of sedation.

Sedation medication will put you into a state of deep relaxation. Most patients do not recall much about their visit about the procedure, simply arriving to the office and soon after are at home relaxing.
