AI summarySynthesized from FDA + DailyMed + ClinicalTrials.gov data
XYLOCAINE is a combination injectable anesthetic containing lidocaine hydrochloride and epinephrine bitartrate, used for local and regional anesthesia. Lidocaine blocks nerve impulses by inhibiting sodium influx, while epinephrine causes vasoconstriction to prolong anesthetic effect and reduce systemic absorption. It is a foundational local anesthetic used across surgical, dental, and procedural settings.
