Lignocaine (Lidocaine) 2% 30mL Injection
SKU GME590Product Introduction
Lignocaine injection is a local anaesthetic used to numb a defined area for procedures or nerve blocks. The appropriate technique depends on the concentration, preservative content and intended anatomical site.
How to use
A trained clinician calculates the total dose and injects at the appropriate site using safeguards against intravascular administration. A multidose 2% vial must not be assumed suitable for spinal, epidural or intravenous use.
How it works
Lignocaine reversibly blocks voltage-gated sodium channels in nerves, preventing propagation of pain impulses.
Side effects
Local soreness, temporary tingling or numbness can occur. Excess systemic exposure can cause tinnitus, seizures and dangerous cardiac effects.
Important information
Tell your doctor about local-anaesthetic allergy, serious liver disease, conduction disorders and other local anaesthetics. Resuscitation equipment and toxicity management must be available during relevant procedures.
Uses
- Local infiltration anaesthesia
- peripheral nerve block where the formulation is suitable
Benefits
Temporarily interrupts pain transmission from the treated area during a procedure.
Does 2% mean 2mg/mL?
No. A 2% solution contains 20mg/mL, which matters when calculating the injected volume.
Can I eat while my mouth is numb?
Wait until protective sensation returns to avoid biting or burning your mouth.
What are early signs of systemic toxicity?
Metallic taste, ringing ears, mouth tingling, agitation or dizziness should be reported immediately.
Is every vial suitable for an epidural?
No. Preservatives and formulation determine suitability for an epidural. A multidose local-anaesthetic vial is not automatically suitable for injection near the spine.
Can several local anaesthetics be combined freely?
No. Toxic effects can add together even when different products are used.
Why is the injection given in small stages?
Incremental administration helps the clinician monitor effect and reduce accidental high systemic exposure.
Does numbness mean the nerve is permanently damaged?
Temporary loss of sensation is expected; persistent weakness or numbness beyond the expected period needs review.
Can heart-rhythm injection instructions be used for local anaesthesia?
No. Intravenous antiarrhythmic lignocaine uses a different protocol and suitable formulation.
