Anesthetics
The Lidocaine + Epinephrine 0.5% Injectable Multi-Dose Vial is a pharmaceutical preparation combining a local anesthetic with a vasoconstrictor. It is designed for use in medical settings to provide effective local anesthesia while minimizing blood flow in the area of administration. This combination enhances the anesthetic effect of lidocaine and prolongs its duration of action, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of surgical, dental, and medical procedures.
Key Features:
- Local Anesthetic Action: Lidocaine, a widely used local anesthetic, works by blocking sodium channels, thereby inhibiting nerve impulse conduction. This results in effective and rapid onset pain relief for various procedures.
- Vasoconstrictor Enhancement: The inclusion of Epinephrine in a 1:200,000 concentration serves to constrict blood vessels at the site of injection. This vasoconstriction reduces local blood flow, which helps to prolong the anesthetic effect of lidocaine and minimizes bleeding during surgical procedures.
- Multi-Dose Vial: The 50mL multi-dose vial is designed for use in multiple patients or for repeated use on a single patient, providing convenience and cost-effectiveness in busy clinical settings. It is particularly useful in environments where frequent administration of local anesthesia is required.
- Precise and Controlled Dosage: The combination of Lidocaine 0.5% with Epinephrine 1:200,000 allows for precise control over the anesthetic effect, ensuring patient safety and optimal outcomes in various procedures.
