Buloc H 20mg Injection blocks the nerve impulses that send pain signals to your brain and helps to perform a painless procedure by temporarily numbing the surgical area. Like many other medicines, this medicine also has few side effects. The most common side effects of this medicine are nausea, vomiting, tingling sensation, slow heart rate, high or low blood pressure, dizziness, and urinary retention. These are usually mild and short-lived. If the numbness or other side effects persist, consult your doctor without delay.
Bupivacaine crosses the neuronal membrane and exerts its anesthetic action through blockade of these channels at the intracellular portion of their pore-forming transmembrane segments. The block is use-dependent, where repetitive or prolonged depolarization increases sodium channel blockade.
The rate of systemic absorption of bupivacaine and other local anesthetics is dependent upon the dose and concentration of drug administered, the route of administration, the vascularity of the administration site, and the presence or absence of epinephrine in the preparation.
Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
