Caine-1 Inj

Caine-1 Inj Uses

This medication is used for numbing an area of skin or part of the body just before surgery. Lidocaine belongs to a class of drugs known as anesthetics. It works by blocking pain signals, allowing certain surgical procedures to be done without putting you under general anesthesia (to sleep).

How To Use Caine-1 Inj

This medication is given by either a doctor or dentist in the office or by an anesthesia doctor (anesthesiologist) in the hospital. This medication is given by injection into the skin or around a nerve or by slow injection around the spinal cord, depending on the amount of numbing that is needed for your surgery. Other medicines may be used with lidocaine if needed.

Before using, check this product visually for particles or discoloration. If either is present, do not use the liquid.

A small test dose may be given first to see how you respond to this medication.

Dosage is based on your age, liver function, medical condition, response to treatment, and type of surgery.

If you are awake during your surgery, tell your doctor immediately if you feel pain.
