Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Keol-C (oxygen) is used in respiratory therapy to address conditions associated with low blood oxygen levels.
  • Hypoxemia: Increases arterial oxygen tension to correct low blood oxygen levels.
  • Respiratory distress: Provides immediate supplemental oxygen to relieve breathing difficulty.
  • COPD exacerbations: Improves oxygenation during acute worsening of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
  • Postoperative oxygen therapy: Supports recovery by maintaining adequate oxygen saturation after surgery.

How It Works

  • Keol-C delivers medical‑grade oxygen directly to the lungs, raising the alveolar partial pressure of oxygen. This enhances diffusion across the alveolar‑capillary membrane, increasing arterial oxygen tension (PaO2) and improving tissue oxygen delivery throughout the body, thereby correcting hypoxemia and supporting cellular metabolism.

Side Effects

Common Side Effects

  • Nasal dryness or irritation
  • Throat discomfort
  • Headache
  • Dizziness
  • Cough
  • Fatigue

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Oxygen toxicity leading to pulmonary injury
  • Seizures due to hyperoxia
  • Fire or explosion hazard when used near open flames
  • Pulmonary edema in susceptible patients

Precautions & Warnings

  • Keol-C should be used under medical supervision with appropriate monitoring.
  • Assess oxygen saturation before initiating therapy: ensure the patient requires supplemental oxygen.
  • Adjust flow rate per prescription: follow the clinician‑specified flow‑meter settings.
  • Monitor for signs of hypercapnia in COPD patients: watch for worsening CO2 retention.
  • Avoid use in patients with known oxygen hypersensitivity: discontinue if adverse reaction occurs.
  • Use with caution around smokers or open flames: fire risk is increased with high‑concentration oxygen.
  • Store at ambient temperature: keep cylinders upright, protected from heat, direct sunlight and secure to prevent falling.

Avoid Interactions

Keol-C may interact with certain therapies and medications.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Nitric oxide therapy: concurrent use can reduce the effectiveness of both gases.
  • Bleomycin or other pulmonary‑toxic agents: increased risk of lung injury.
  • Hyperbaric oxygen treatment: excessive oxygen exposure can cause toxicity.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Sedatives or opioids: may depress respiratory drive, requiring closer monitoring.
  • Bronchodilators: may enhance oxygen uptake, adjust flow as needed.
  • Corticosteroids: monitor for potential changes in infection risk while on high‑flow oxygen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Keol-C is a medical gas containing oxygen, used in respiratory therapy to treat conditions such as hypoxemia, respiratory distress, COPD exacerbations and postoperative oxygen support.

Oxygen increases the partial pressure of oxygen in the alveoli, enhancing diffusion into the bloodstream, raising arterial oxygen tension and improving tissue oxygen delivery.

The prescribed dose of Keol‑C is determined by the treating clinician based on the patient’s oxygen saturation, clinical condition and target SpO₂, and is delivered via appropriate flow‑rate devices.

Safety data for supplemental oxygen in pregnancy and lactation are limited; it is generally considered safe when clinically indicated, but the prescriber should weigh benefits against any potential risks.

To order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com specifying the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and necessary import documentation.

Keol‑C provides medical‑grade oxygen in a ready‑to‑use inhalation gas form, comparable to cylinder or concentrator supplies, but its advantage lies in consistent purity, regulatory compliance and the ability to integrate with standard flow‑meter devices.

Store Keol‑C cylinders at ambient temperature, upright, in a well‑ventilated area away from heat sources and direct sunlight. Keep the valve protected and ensure cylinders are secured to prevent falling.

Keol‑C is administered by connecting the cylinder to a calibrated flow‑meter or ventilator circuit, delivering oxygen by inhalation at the flow rate prescribed by the clinician, typically via nasal cannula, mask or mechanical ventilation.

The most serious risks include oxygen toxicity leading to pulmonary injury, seizures, and fire hazards when used near open flames or smoking environments; patients should be monitored for signs of hyperoxia.

Keol‑C should be avoided in patients with known hypersensitivity to oxygen, those receiving certain pulmonary toxic agents (e.g., bleomycin) without close monitoring, and individuals for whom supplemental oxygen is not clinically indicated.
