FAQs on Apricacine 2% Injection

Apricacine 2% Injection provides rapid onset anesthesia, but its effects are short-lived: 10–20 minutes after intravenous administration and 60–90 minutes after intramuscular injection. Plasma concentrations are halved within 1.5–2 hours.
Apricacine 2% Injection typically doesn't cause pain, except when administered as spinal anesthesia. Instead, it usually provides pain relief for conditions such as neuropathic pain and post-surgical pain.
Apricacine 2% Injection is contraindicated in patients with allergies to the medication, hypovolemia, or complete heart block. If adrenaline is present, intravenous injection or injection into poorly perfused areas (e.g., fingers, toes, ears, nose, penis) is prohibited due to insufficient blood supply.
To date, no misuse of Apricacine 2% Injection has been reported. While rare, euphoria is not typically associated with its use. However, it may induce brief psychotic reactions, including death anxiety, feelings of doom, and delirium, which typically subside once the injection's effects wear off.
