Brief Summary
Unbranded drug molecules are produced after the patent of a given drug has expired. Unbranded molecules of Remifentanil have been marketed in Colombia, and several reports by anesthesiologist indicate that there are differences in the physiologic response of patients to these molecules. The investigators hypothesized that unbranded molecules of remifentanil require higher doses to obtain desired physiological responses as compared to the branded molecule.
