Propofol is primarily used via IV, either through an IV line or as a direct injection into the vein. Propofol is only indicated for hospital use. Two medical professionals are required to be present during administration, one to give the drug and the other to monitor vital signs which can fluctuate greatly. Propofol is a HIGHLY dangerous drug and cause severe side effects including death.
