It should not be used with : The drier the sodalime, the more likely it will degrade & absorb volatile anesthetics. It produces compound A with sevofluraneQ (clinically significant) and carbon monoxide with desflurane, isoflurane & enflurane (clinically insignificant). However, desflurae can be broken down to CO by dry barium hydroxide lime to such an extent that it is capable of causing clinically significant CO poisoning.
