Lidocaine 2% HCl for Injection is a local anesthetic medication that belongs to the amide group. It works by blocking the transmission of nerve signals, specifically the transmission of pain signals, from a specific area of the body. This is achieved by inhibiting the voltage-gated sodium channels in the nerve cells, which are responsible for sending pain signals to the brain.
When the medication is injected into a specific area, it quickly numbs the nerves in that area, resulting in reduced sensation and pain. Lidocaine 2% HCl for Injection also has vasoconstrictive properties, meaning it constricts blood vessels, which can help reduce bleeding in the area.
In medical settings, Lidocaine 2% HCl for Injection is commonly used for minor surgeries and dental procedures, as well as to provide pain relief during labor and delivery. It is also used to treat certain heart rhythm problems. The effects of the medication typically last for around 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the dosage, concentration, and location of the injection.
