Lox Viscous Infusion
Prescription Required
Product introduction
Lox Viscous Infusion is a local anesthetic. It is used during minor surgical procedures such as dental, oral, diagnostic, or other therapeutic procedures to anesthetize or numb the surgical area.
Lox Viscous Infusion must be administered by healthcare professionals. It blocks the pain signals to reach the brain by temporarily numbing the surgical area and helps to perform a painless procedure.
This medicine is generally safe with little or no side effects. However, it may cause injection site reactions, such as pain, swelling, and redness, in some people. These are usually mild and short-lived. If the numbness or other side effects persist at the injection site, consult your doctor without any delay.
Before using Lox Viscous Infusion, it is very important to tell your doctor if you have any underlying heart disease or are taking medicines for heart rhythm problems. Ask your doctor for advice if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Also, the medicine may cause dizziness. So avoid driving or operating heavy machinery while on medication.

Benefits of Lox Infusion
In Local anesthesia (Numb tissues in a specific area)
Lox Viscous Infusion is a local anesthetic. It makes the oral skin numb. It can be used to relieve pain, irritation, or itching caused by a wide variety of conditions. It is generally very safe, works quite quickly, and will reduce the discomfort that might be caused by mouth ulcers, a small cosmetic or other surgical procedure.
It is also used in procedures requiring the insertion of a tube into your mouth, which can otherwise be uncomfortable and even painful. Lidocaine can be applied to the surface of the tube before it is inserted. This will both lubricate the tube and give an anesthetic effect, making the procedure more comfortable.

FAQs
Q. How long does the effect of Lox Viscous Infusion lasts?
The anesthetic effect of Lox Viscous Infusion starts acting rapidly. However, it has a very short duration of action of 10-20 minutes after intravenous injection and 60-90 minutes after intramuscular action. The quantity of medicine reduces into half (into the blood-stream) within 1.5 to 2 hours of taking it.
Q. Is Lox Viscous Infusion injection painful?
No, Lox Viscous Infusion injection does not cause pain except when it is given as spinal anesthesia. Lox Viscous Infusion usually relieves pain in conditions like neuropathic pain and pain occurring after surgery.
Q. Who should not be given Lox Viscous Infusion?
Lox Viscous Infusion should not be given to patients who are allergic to it, have decreased blood volume (hypovolemia), or complete heart block. If the solution also contains adrenaline, it should not be injected into a vein or used in areas such as fingers, toes, ears, nose or penis, as the blood supply to these areas may not be sufficient.
Q. Can Lox Viscous Infusion be abused?
No, abuse of Lox Viscous Infusion has not been observed yet. There are very rare reports of Lox Viscous Infusion injection causing any euphoric effect. However, Lox Viscous Infusion may cause some psychotic reactions such as fear from death, doom anxiety, and delirium. These are short-lasting and generally disappear after the effect of injection is over.
