Asked By:musa1992 in Toronto, ON

I did a lot of research about General Anaesthesia, but I couldn't find the answer that I was looking for. I'd like to know exactly what drugs (or how many) are used during General Anaesthesia? Also, I'd like to know how safe is General Anaesthesia? Is it safe for a person to have multiple surgeries in a single day or a few days apart - male breast reduction and full tummy tuck? Do drugs used in General Anaesthesia have any affect on a person's liver, kidney, heart, etc?
