Halothane also has excellent bronchodilatory properties and remains an acceptable alternative for induction Isoflurane - Isoflurane is a good bronchodilator, but it is not ideal for induction of anesthesia since it is more pungent than sevoflurane and halothane and has a slower onset than sevoflurane. Sevoflurane - We prefer sevoflurane for inhalation induction since it has the most pronounced bronchodilatory properties of the available agents. Desflurane - We avoid desflurane during induction of anesthesia in patients with COPD. Because of its extreme pungency, desflurane may increase secretions and cause coughing, laryngospasm, and/or bronchospasm during induction, particularly in current smokers, and it may increase airway resistance.
