Description

Xylocaine 1% W/Epi Mpf 10mL 25 is a local anesthetic solution, containing lidocaine hydrochloride as the active ingredient, along with epinephrine (adrenaline) as a vasoconstrictor. This formulation provides effective pain relief during minor surgical procedures, dental work, and diagnostic interventions by blocking nerve impulses in the area of application.

The 1% concentration of lidocaine offers a potent and reliable local anesthesia, typically used for infiltration anesthesia, nerve blocks, or epidural anesthesia. The presence of epinephrine enhances the efficacy of lidocaine by decreasing its systemic absorption and increasing its duration of action.

The solution is packaged in a 10mL vial with a concentration of 1% lidocaine and 1:100,000 epinephrine, offering an easy-to-administer dosage for practitioners. It is contraindicated in patients with certain heart conditions, uncontrolled hypertension, or in areas where vasoconstriction may cause tissue damage.
