Description

Xylocaine 1% Polyamp 10mL is a local anesthetic solution containing 1% lidocaine hydrochloride, primarily used for infiltration and nerve block procedures. This formulation provides effective anesthesia by blocking nerve signal transmission, thereby preventing pain during medical procedures. It is not intended for use in epidural or spinal anesthesia.

The Xylocaine Polyamp 10mL comes in a sterile packaging format, featuring the Polyamp Duofit system, which ensures proper delivery and prevents contamination. Each pack contains five 10mL Polyamp vials, making it convenient for clinical environments with high usage demands. The product is sterile and preservative-free.

The mechanism of action for Xylocaine 1% is based on its ability to block sodium ion channels in nerve cells, inhibiting the depolarization and conduction of nerve impulses. This leads to a reversible loss of sensation in the treated area. It is suitable for a variety of minor and major procedures, including dental, dermatological, and surgical interventions, providing effective short-term anesthesia.
