Frequently asked questions

What is Lidocaïne Adrenaline Aguettant used for?+
Lidocaïne Adrenaline Aguettant is a combination of lidocaine and epinephrine used to provide rapid local anesthesia and prolong its effect for surgical, infiltration, epidural and perineural procedures in adult patients.
How does lidocaine and epinephrine work together?+
Lidocaine blocks voltage‑gated sodium channels, stopping nerve impulse transmission, while epinephrine activates alpha‑adrenergic receptors causing vasoconstriction. This reduces systemic absorption of lidocaine, extending the anesthetic duration and limiting bleeding at the injection site.
What is the usual dose of this product?+
The dose of Lidocaïne Adrenaline Aguettant is determined by the prescribing clinician based on the specific procedure, patient characteristics, and required depth of anesthesia. Only a qualified health professional should set the dosage.
Is this product safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for Lidocaïne Adrenaline Aguettant in pregnancy and lactation are limited. Clinicians should weigh potential benefits against risks and consider alternative options when treating pregnant or nursing patients.
How do I order Lidocaïne Adrenaline Aguettant from GNH USA?+
To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH USA works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.
How does this product compare with plain lidocaine alone?+
Compared with lidocaine alone, the addition of epinephrine provides vasoconstriction, which reduces bleeding, slows systemic absorption, and prolongs the anesthetic effect. This can allow lower total lidocaine doses and longer duration of action, especially useful in procedures requiring extended anesthesia.
What are the storage and handling requirements?+
Lidocaïne Adrenaline Aguettant should be stored below 25 °C, in its original packaging, protected from moisture and direct light. Do not freeze the solution, and keep the vial sealed until use to maintain sterility.
How is the product administered?+
The product is supplied as a sterile injectable solution and is administered by a qualified health professional via epidural, infiltration or perineural injection techniques, following aseptic procedures and appropriate dosing guidelines.
What are the most serious risks to watch for?+
Serious risks include severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis), cardiac arrhythmias, seizures, and methemoglobinemia. Immediate medical attention is required if any of these events occur after administration.
Who should not use this medication?+
Patients with known hypersensitivity to lidocaine, epinephrine, or any component of the formulation should not receive this product. It should also be avoided in individuals with uncontrolled hypertension, certain cardiac conduction disorders, or those taking contraindicated interacting medications.
