About Epitrate Injection 10 x 1 ml
Epitrate Injection 10 x 1 ml is used for irrigation during intraoperative mydriasis (pupil dilation during surgery). Doctors induce mydriasis during eye exams or surgeries to get a clearer view of the retina and internal eye structures. This enables accurate diagnosis and effective treatment. By allowing better access to the eye's internal structures, mydriasis facilitates thorough eye care.
Epitrate Injection 10 x 1 ml is a combination of two drugs, namely: Adrenaline and sodium metabisulphite. Adrenaline stimulates the radial muscles of the iris, causing pupil dilation. Sodium metabisulphite is a preservative that helps maintain the stability of the adrenaline solution. Thereby, Epitrate Injection 10 x 1 ml enables effective irrigation, maintaining clear visibility during eye surgery.
Epitrate Injection 10 x 1 ml will be administered by the doctor. Some people may experience side effects such as nausea, vomiting, increased heart rate and high blood pressure.
