How to use Elscain Injection

Your doctor or nurse will give you this medicine. Kindly do not self administer.

How Elscain Injection works

Elscain Injection is a combination of two medicines: Lidoacaine and Epinephrine. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic which works by blocking pain signals from the nerves to brain thereby decreasing the sensation of pain. Adrenaline is a vasoconstrictor which tightens the blood vessels to slow the dispersal, and thereby prolong the effect of Lidocaine. Together, they numb the area effectively and allow medical procedures/surgeries to be performed without pain.

Quick tips

  • Elscain Injection is given to numb the surgical area to help reduce pain or discomfort during minor surgical procedures such as oral or dental.
  • It is given as an injection under the supervision of a doctor.
  • Avoid eating or chewing within 1 hour after Elscain Injection is given to numb your mouth or throat. This is because you may accidentally bite the inside of your mouth if you are still numb.
