The Pro-Nox is a 50% Oxygen and 50% Nitrous analgesia mixture which enables you the patient to self-administer it through a specially designed on-demand valve that only delivers the medical gases when you breath in and need it.
The Pro-Nox Nitrous Oxide Delivery System is the best on the market today to help relieve the pain and anxiety during painful medical procedures.
Quick Effect
The Pro-Nox takes effect in seconds and offers immediate relief of pain and anxiety without any needles or long lasting effects. You control when to use it and for how long. The Pro-Nox allows you to recognize and respond to your pain and discomfort on your own terms.
Quick Recovery
Unlike other pain medication in pill/needle form, there are no lasting effects and you will be able to drive yourself to and from your appointment. With the Pro-Nox, you breathe into the mouthpiece/mask, which you hold and control, when you need it for the pain.

Common Questions
What is it?
A mixture of 50% Oxygen and 50% Nitrous Oxide.
How does it work?
