💊 Bupivacaine

💊 This is information only, not a prescription. Talk to a doctor or pharmacist before taking any medicine. For an overdose or poisoning, call 102.

How it works

Bupivacaine blocks the generation and the conduction of nerve impulses, presumably by increasing the threshold for electrical excitation in the nerve, by slowing the propagation of the nerve impulse, and by reducing the rate of rise of the action potential.

🚨 Overdose or poisoning

For a suspected overdose or poisoning, call 102 now and go to the nearest emergency hospital.
