About Lidayn Injection

Lidayn Injection is a sterile injection used to block pain in specific parts of the body during minor medical, surgical, or dental procedures. It acts as a local anesthetic, temporarily numbing the target area so you do not feel discomfort while your healthcare provider performs the procedure. It is injected directly into or around the area requiring treatment.

Because Lidayn Injection is a local anesthetic injected by a trained healthcare professional, it is used on an as-needed basis for specific procedures rather than on a regular daily schedule. You do not need to worry about consistent daily doses, as it is only injected during your clinical appointment. There are no specific food restrictions before receiving this injection, but following your doctor's fasting guidelines for surgery is highly recommended, and eating light meals beforehand can help you feel more comfortable.

Most people tolerate this injection well, but you may experience temporary local side effects like mild swelling, redness, or a tingling sensation at the injection site. These usually fade quickly as the medication wears off. If you experience severe dizziness, breathing difficulties, or a fast or irregular heartbeat, you must alert your medical team immediately.

Before receiving Lidayn Injection, tell your healthcare provider if you have a history of heart disease, high blood pressure, liver damage, or blood circulation problems. Do not use this medicine if you have a known allergy to similar local anesthetics. It is also important to tell your doctor if you have severe heart rhythm disorders or tissue diseases in the area being treated.

This injection can interact with certain blood pressure medications, antidepressants, or heart medicines, which may affect your blood pressure or heart rate during the procedure. It is also wise to avoid drinking alcohol before your appointment, as it can increase drowsiness and alter how your body processes the medicine. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or an elderly individual, consult your doctor to ensure this is the safest anesthetic option for your specific situation.

Uses of Lidayn Injection

Here are the common uses of Lidayn Injection:

  • Local anaesthesia: Lidayn Injection is injected to numb a specific, localised area of the body, allowing pain-free minor surgical or diagnostic procedures.
  • Dental procedures: It is used to block pain signals in the teeth and gums during dental work like extractions, fillings, or root canals.
  • Regional nerve blocks: The injection can block nerve pathways to anaesthetise a larger region, such as an entire limb or finger, for complex procedures.
  • Surgical bleeding control: By temporarily narrowing local blood vessels, it helps minimise bleeding at the surgical site, giving the surgeon a clearer view.

Key Benefits

Lidayn Injection provides several benefits by offering effective local pain control while reducing bleeding:

  • Provides Rapid Pain Relief: It quickly blocks pain signals from the treated area, allowing procedures to be performed comfortably.
  • Prolongs the Numbing Effect: The adrenaline component slows the absorption of lignocaine, helping the anaesthetic effect last longer and reducing the need for repeated injections.
  • Reduces Bleeding During Procedures: By narrowing blood vessels at the injection site, it helps minimise bleeding and provides a clearer surgical field.
  • Supports a More Comfortable Procedure: Effective pain control and reduced bleeding help make medical and dental procedures smoother for both the patient and the healthcare professional.

Directions for Use

  • Follow your doctor’s instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication.
  • Lidayn Injection will be administered by the doctor or nurse in a healthcare setting.
  • Do not self-administer.

How Lidayn Injection Works

Lidayn Injection works through a dual-action mechanism that combines two specialised components to provide highly effective local pain relief. The first component is a powerful local anaesthetic. It works by temporarily blocking the pathway of pain signals along your nerves. It achieves this by stopping sodium from entering the nerve endings, which prevents the electrical signals from travelling to your brain. Since the brain does not receive these signals, you do not feel any pain in the treated area. The second component is a vasoconstrictor, which means it temporarily narrows the local blood vessels in the area where it is injected. This narrowing slows down blood flow in that specific spot. By doing so, it keeps the local anesthetic in the target area for a longer period, making the numbing effect last much longer. Additionally, this reduced blood flow helps minimize bleeding during minor surgical procedures.

What if I have taken an overdose of Lidayn Injection

Because this medication is injected by a trained medical professional in a controlled clinical environment, an overdose is highly unlikely. However, if you experience symptoms like severe shivering, seizures, extreme dizziness, or a rapid heart rate during or immediately after the injection, tell your healthcare provider right away. They are fully equipped to manage any immediate reactions.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Avoid eating hot food or chewing: If Lidayn Injection was used for a dental procedure, do not eat or chew gum until the numbness has completely worn off to avoid accidentally biting your cheek, tongue, or lips.
  • Do not consume hot beverages: Avoid hot coffee or tea immediately after dental or oral procedures, as you may burn your mouth without realising it due to the lack of sensation.
  • Rest the treated area: Allow the numbed part of your body to rest after the procedure, avoiding strenuous activity or heavy lifting that could strain the injection site.
  • Stay hydrated with water: Drink plenty of water after your procedure to help your body process and clear the medication naturally.
  • Avoid alcohol: Do not drink alcohol for at least 24 hours after your procedure, as it can interact with the remaining anaesthetic in your system and increase drowsiness or dizziness.

FAQs

Lidayn Injection is used to produce local numbness (anaesthesia) on skin before surgical procedure and reduce pain and discomfort caused by invasive medical procedures such as surgery.
Lidayn Injection contains Lidocaine and Adrenaline. Lidocaine blocks the influx of sodium ions into the membrane that surrounds the nerves, thereby preventing initiation and conduction of impulses (nerve signal). Hence, it gives an anesthetic effect and decreases the sensation of pain. Adrenaline works by constricting and narrowing blood vessels by acting on alpha receptors that cause muscle contractions. Thus, it decreasing the bleeding and the effects of Lidayn Injection will last longer.
You are not recommended to take duloxetine (antidepressant) with Lidayn Injection as co-administration of these two medicines may increase the risk of high blood pressure and heart rate. However, please consult your doctor before taking other medicines with Lidayn Injection.
Lidayn Injection causes drowsiness and vision disturbances. So, drive only if you are alert and omit driving or operating machinery if you feel dizzy or drowsy.
A person of age 65 or older should use Lidayn Injection with caution, as directed by the doctor as the chances of occurrence of side effects increase in older people.
Lidayn Injection should be used with caution in patients suffering from heart rhythm disorders as it may increase the risk of severe adverse effects. Therefore, inform your doctor if you have any heart problems before taking Lidayn Injection so that the dose may be adjusted appropriately or an alternate medicine may be prescribed.
The effect of Lidayn Injection may last for about 1 to 2 hours, depending on the dosage, and the site of administration. For some individuals, the effect may last longer or shorter than the average duration. However, the duration may vary from person to person.
Lidayn Injection is generally well-tolerated, and patients often report mild or no pain during administration. However, individual experiences may vary, and some patients might feel slight discomfort at the injection site. To minimize potential pain, healthcare providers may use techniques such as buffering the lidocaine with sodium bicarbonate or employing smaller gauge needles.
Lidayn Injection is contraindicated in individuals with a known hypersensitivity to amide-type local anaesthetics or any ingredients of the injection formulation.
No, Lidayn Injection may not cause abuse as it is typically administered by the doctor or nurse. This ensures the dosage and usage are carefully monitored to avoid misuse or harmful effects.
The side effects of Lidayn Injection include nausea, vomiting, reactions at the application site (burning, itching, redness, and irritation), and allergy. Most of these symptoms will resolve gradually over time. However, consult the doctor if these side effects persist or worsen.
If the injection was in or around your mouth, you should wait to eat until the numbness completely wears off to avoid biting your tongue or cheek. For other injection areas, you can usually eat when you feel ready, but talk to your doctor for specific post-procedure advice.
This injection is used during pregnancy only if the potential benefits outweigh the risks to the unborn baby. Your healthcare team will carefully evaluate your situation, so always talk to your doctor before any planned procedure.
Mild tenderness is normal, but worsening redness, swelling, warmth, or discharge could indicate a local infection. If you notice these symptoms, talk to your doctor immediately.
It is highly recommended to avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours after your procedure. Alcohol can increase drowsiness, interact with the remaining medication, and slow down your recovery. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have questions.
