What are the commonly used anesthetics?

Generally, commonly used anesthetics include lidocaine hydrochloride injection, procaine hydrochloride injection, tetracaine hydrochloride injection, bupivacaine hydrochloride injection, and ropivacaine hydrochloride injection. Specific details are as follows:

1. Lidocaine Hydrochloride Injection

Lidocaine hydrochloride injection is both an anesthetic and an antiarrhythmic agent. It can be used for infiltration anesthesia, epidural anesthesia, surface anesthesia, and nerve conduction block. It is also indicated for the treatment of ventricular premature beats and ventricular tachycardia following acute myocardial infarction.

2. Procaine Hydrochloride Injection

Procaine hydrochloride injection is a local anesthetic used for infiltration anesthesia, block anesthesia, spinal anesthesia, epidural anesthesia, and closure therapy.

3. Tetracaine Hydrochloride Injection

Tetracaine hydrochloride injection is a long-acting ester-type local anesthetic used for epidural block, subarachnoid block, nerve conduction block, and mucosal surface anesthesia.

4. Bupivacaine Hydrochloride Injection

Bupivacaine hydrochloride injection is generally used for local infiltration anesthesia, as well as peripheral nerve blocks and intrathecal (spinal/epidural) blocks.

5. Ropivacaine Hydrochloride Injection

Ropivacaine hydrochloride injection is a local anesthetic used for epidural anesthesia, subarachnoid anesthesia, regional block, and acute pain management.

Patients are advised to seek timely medical attention when experiencing discomfort and to use medications and receive treatments under the guidance of a physician, which helps promote recovery.
