Description

Sensorcaine with Epinephrine 0.5% 10mL is a local anesthetic solution used to provide regional anesthesia during surgical procedures or to manage pain. The active ingredient, bupivacaine, is an amide-type anesthetic that works by blocking sodium channels in nerve fibers, preventing the transmission of pain signals to the brain. The addition of epinephrine (a vasoconstrictor) helps to prolong the duration of the anesthetic effect by reducing blood flow to the area.

This formulation is typically used for nerve blocks, epidural anesthesia, and local infiltration during surgeries, offering effective and prolonged pain relief. The solution is delivered in a 10mL vial, which allows for precise dosing in various clinical settings. It is suitable for use in both inpatient and outpatient procedures and is preferred for its reliability and long-acting effects.

Sensorcaine with Epinephrine 0.5% is methylparaben-free, which makes it suitable for patients who may have hypersensitivity to preservatives. The solution should be administered by trained healthcare professionals in controlled environments to minimize risks, such as overdose or inadvertent intravascular injection.
