Highlights
- Bupivacaine MDV 0.25% 50 mL is a sterile injectable solution used for regional anesthesia in various medical and surgical procedures. This local anesthetic is formulated to provide effective pain relief by blocking nerve impulses. It contains 0.25% bupivacaine hydrochloride as the active ingredient, which is known for its prolonged duration of action, making it suitable for both short and extended procedures.
- The solution is presented in a 50 mL multidose vial, allowing for flexible usage in clinical settings. Bupivacaine acts by inhibiting sodium ion influx through voltage-gated sodium channels in nerve membranes, thereby preventing the propagation of nerve impulses and providing local analgesia. The onset of action is typically within 20 to 30 minutes, with its effects lasting for several hours, depending on the dosage and site of administration.
- Common side effects may include localized reactions such as redness or swelling at the injection site, and systemic effects such as dizziness or nausea. Proper administration and dosage are crucial to minimize potential adverse effects.
- This anesthetic is used in various procedures including epidural anesthesia, nerve blocks, and local infiltration. Its ability to provide prolonged analgesia makes it particularly useful in managing postoperative pain and during labor and delivery.
