About Anawin Heavy 5mg Injection

BUPIVACAINE belongs to the class of 'local anaesthetics', primarily used to reduce pain and discomfort during labour, surgery, dental treatment and other medical procedures. It produces local numbness and relieves pain. BUPIVACAINE is given in the form of an epidural injection at the spinal cord to prevent pain during labour and Caesarean section. Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, which causes uncomfortable sensations in the body. Pain may be dull or sharp, it might be constant or intermittent. The tolerance level of pain might vary from person to person.

BUPIVACAINE contains 'Bupivacaine' that belongs to the group of medicines called 'amide-type anaesthetics'. Bupivacaine is a numbing medication that blocks the transmission of pain signals in the pain area by acting on the nervous system and nerves. This blockage causes the loss of pain sensation and promotes temperature, touch, deep pressure and muscle control. Thus BUPIVACAINE helps in numbing the area and provides relief from pain.
