Lyopine Inj
Generic Name: ATROPINE - INJECTION
Pronounced: (AT-trow-peen)
Lyopine Inj Uses
This medication is used before surgery to help decrease
the amount of saliva you produce. Decreasing your saliva before surgery can
help to reduce the risk of getting saliva into your lungs, which may cause a
lung infection (pneumonia). It also has some helpful effect on maintaining your
blood pressure and heart rate during surgery. Atropine belongs to a class of
drugs known as anticholinergics. It works by decreasing the effects of a
natural substance (acetylcholine) in the body.
Atropine is also used to restore a normal heart rate in
patients with slow heartbeat. It is also used as an antidote in certain
poisonings (e.g., insecticides, nerve gases).
How To Use Lyopine Inj
This medication may be injected under the skin, into a
muscle, or into a vein. It is usually given by a healthcare professional in a
medical setting (e.g., hospital, emergency room, or doctor's office). Dosage is
based on your medical condition, weight, and response to
therapy.
Before using, check this product visually for particles or
discoloration. If either is present, do not use the liquid.
If this drug is used to treat slow heartbeat or poisoning,
inform your doctor if your condition persists or worsens.
