LOX 2% INJECTION contains Lignocaine, which belongs to the group of medicines called Local anaesthetic agents. It is used to cause numbness (loss of sensation) of body parts in the regions where it has been administered (local anesthesia). It is generally used prior to spinal anesthesia or before surgical procedures to cause a temporary loss of sensation. It also helps to control the heartbeat in patients with arrythmia (an irregular heartbeat).
LOX 2% INJECTION will be given to you only by a trained anaesthesiologist around the areas (such as hands, legs, abdomen, pelvis, and spine) locally where loss of sensation (numbness) is required.
Before receiving LOX 2% INJECTION, inform your doctor if you have any liver, kidney, or heart problems. You must also inform your doctor if you have any breathing disorders, blood problems, epilepsy, glaucoma, stroke, dehydration, low blood potassium levels, or muscle weakness.
LOX 2% INJECTION should be used in pregnant or breastfeeding women only if considered necessary by the physician. The most common side effects of receiving LOX 2% INJECTION are nausea, slow heart rate, dizziness, lower back pain, difficulty walking, and an inability to control urine or bowel movements. Inform your doctor if any of these side effects worsen.
