(Tıp, İlaç) Carbogen, also called Meduna's Mixture after its inventor, is a life-supporting mixture of carbon dioxide and oxygen gas, containing at least 20% oxygen and generally about 50 O2

When Carbogen is inhaled, the increase of carbon dioxide in the lungs causes a perception, both psychological and physiological, of suffocation. This is because the brain perceives an increase in carbon dioxide levels in the lungs as a decrease in oxygen.
