Drug introduction

Bupivacaine with epinephrine is a combination of local anesthetic drugs commonly used in surgeries and medical procedures to relieve pain. Bupivacaine is a local anesthetic that blocks nerve signals, making the localized area unable to feel pain. Epinephrine constricts blood vessels, prolongs the effects of anesthesia, and reduces bleeding. This combination is widely used in a variety of surgeries, including dermatological, dental, and gynecological surgeries. Patients may experience localized numbness or tingling when using bupivacaine with epinephrine, but these symptoms are usually temporary. However, overdose can cause serious side effects, such as heart problems or neurological problems. Therefore, the dosage and usage should be accurately controlled by professional medical staff to ensure safe and effective anesthesia.

Dosage

Instructions for use: This medicine is an injection and should be used by professional medical staff in medical facilities. Before injection, ensure that there is no allergic reaction and follow sterile operating procedures. It is usually used during surgery or local anesthesia. The doctor will determine the injection location and dose based on the patient's condition and surgical site. Care should be taken to avoid overdose and patient response should be monitored regularly.

Dosage guide: For adults, the general starting dose is 10-20 ml each time, and the dose can be adjusted as needed. For children, the dosage needs to be adjusted according to weight and age, and it is recommended to use it under the guidance of a professional physician. The patient's reaction should be closely observed during use, and medical staff should be notified immediately if any abnormalities occur. Overuse should be avoided to avoid adverse reactions.
