Prodlidokaine / Adrenaline – ( 40 mg+0.02 mg ) / 2 ml Solution for injection
The solution for injection Prodlidokaine / Adrenaline contains the active substances lidocaine hydrochloride and adrenaline hydrogen tartrate. Lidocaine belongs to the group of local anaesthetics of the amide type. Lidocaine exerts its anaesthetic action by blocking signal generation and conduction in neurons by reducing cell membrane permeability to Na+ ions. This occurs when lidocaine binds to calcium, and together they bind to Na+ receptors in the neuronal membrane. As a result, the membrane is stabilised and depolarisation is blocked, which leads to the prevention of action potential and blocking of the signal conduction. Lidocaine blocks signal generation and conduction in all types of nerves: sensory, motor and autonomic. This block is reversible. Lidocaine is given with adrenaline to prolong the time of action and systemic absorption, which is very important for well vascularized tissues.
The solution for injection Prodlidokaine / Adrenaline is used for local anaesthesia by local infiltration.
