About Lidocaine Hydrochloride

Lidocaine Hydrochloride

1. Local Anesthetic (Main Use)

Numbs tissue in a specific area before minor surgery, dental procedures, or medical interventions.

Used in injections, gels, or topical forms to reduce pain during suturing, insertion of catheters, or minor skin surgeries.

2. Antiarrhythmic Agent (Heart Use)

Used intravenously to treat certain irregular heartbeats (especially ventricular arrhythmias after a heart attack or during cardiac surgery).

3. Pain Relief (Topical / Injectable)

Relieves pain from burns, insect bites, sore throat sprays, hemorrhoids, and minor skin irritations.

Combined with other agents (like epinephrine) for longer numbing effect.

4. Dental Procedures

Widely used in dental anesthetic cartridges to numb gums and teeth before fillings, crowns, or extractions.

5. Post-Herpetic Neuralgia

Lidocaine patches (5%) are prescribed to relieve nerve pain after shingles.

6. Diagnostic Procedures

Used in bronchoscopy, endoscopy, or catheter insertion to anesthetize mucous membranes.

7. Combined Formulations

Often combined with prilocaine in creams (like EMLA cream) for pediatric or dermatological procedures to minimize injection pain.
