How to use Florocid Injection

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

How Florocid Injection works

Florocid Injection is a combination of two medicines: Sodium Fluoride and Procaine which treat filariasis. Sodium Fluoride kills the worms that cause filariasis. Procaine works by blocking pain signals from the nerves to brain which decreases sensation of pain.

  • You are advised to take Florocid Injection for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition.
  • Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • It is best to consume a balanced diet, which is high in nutrients and very less in refined sugars/ processed foods during the treatment.
