XYLOCAINE (Lidocaine (2%))

XYLOCAINE 2% INJ contains Lidocaine, a local anesthetic that is primarily used to provide temporary relief from pain during minor surgical procedures, dental work, or other medical interventions. By numbing the area where it is applied, XYLOCAINE can help patients remain comfortable and reduce the sensation of discomfort during various treatments. This can be especially helpful in procedures where local anesthesia is needed to support patient comfort and cooperation.

Lidocaine, the active ingredient in XYLOCAINE, works by blocking nerve signals in the specific area where it is injected. This action temporarily interrupts the transmission of pain signals to the brain, effectively reducing the sensation of pain for a period of time. Its effectiveness makes it a widely used option in different medical settings.

When using XYLOCAINE, it is essential to store it at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and moisture. It is advisable to keep it out of reach of children and to always follow the instructions provided by a healthcare professional. Patients should be aware of any allergies they may have and communicate these to their healthcare provider.

While XYLOCAINE is generally well-tolerated, some mild side effects may occur, including redness or swelling at the injection site, dizziness, or a feeling of numbness in nearby areas. These effects are typically temporary and resolve on their own.
