'''Isoflurane''' is currently the most commonly used inhalation agent in veterinary practice. Similarly to [[Halothane|halothane]] it's main use is as a maintenance agent after induction with an [[Injectable agents| injectable agent]] but, again, can be used to induce patients. However, it does not have a pleasant odour and so many patients will breath hold. Isoflurane is licenced in most companion animals.
