Lignocaine and Epinephrine is a combination pharmaceutical agent utilized primarily for local anesthesia. The formulation integrates lidocaine hydrochloride (CAS 73-78-9) with epinephrine bitartrate (CAS 51-43-4). This pairing enhances anesthetic duration by inducing localized vasoconstriction, thereby reducing systemic absorption of the active amide.
Strictly contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to amide anesthetics or sulfites. Storage requires protection from light at temperatures below 25°C. Adherence to maximum dosage limits is critical to prevent systemic toxicity and cardiac arrhythmias associated with epinephrine overload.
