The halogenated hydrocarbons halothane, enflurane and isoflurane are used extensively. Like every other anaesthetic, these inhaled agents are not devoid of side effects, most of which are undesirable. This review summarises the similarities and differences between the actions of these vapours. Although isoflurane appears to be more advantageous than enflurane and halothane in certain patients, isoflurane is no panacea and the question of which agent to choose still has to be answered for every patient. A note of caution is warranted against the further use of halothane in adults, as halothane offers no advantages when compared to enflurane and isoflurane but carries a higher risk of hepatotoxicity. However, in children halothane remains the halogenated agent of first choice, when anaesthesia is induced via face mask.
