Description

Bupivacaine SDV 0.75% 10mL is a sterile local anesthetic solution intended for use in epidural and retrobulbar anesthesia. It contains 0.75% bupivacaine, a potent amide-type local anesthetic known for its long-lasting effects. The solution is provided in a 10mL single-dose vial (SDV) for controlled, precise administration in medical procedures requiring localized numbness.

Bupivacaine works by inhibiting sodium ion influx through nerve cell membranes, which prevents the propagation of nerve impulses. This blockade results in temporary loss of sensation in the targeted area, allowing for pain-free surgical or diagnostic procedures. The high concentration of 0.75% provides a powerful anesthetic effect suitable for more invasive or extensive procedures, particularly in epidural and retrobulbar anesthesia.

It is important to note that Bupivacaine SDV 0.75% is not intended for obstetric or spinal anesthesia due to the potential for toxicity and the risk of serious side effects in these settings. It is recommended for specific applications where long-duration local anesthesia is required, such as during certain surgeries or pain management procedures.
