'''Halothane''' was one of the most widely used inhalation agents in veterinary patients. However, it has now been overtaken by other agents such as [[Isoflurane|isoflurane]]. It is most commonly used to maintain anaesthesia after induction with an [[Injectable Agents|injectable agent]], although it has also been used to induce anaesthesia when injection is not possible e.g. poor intravenous access.
