Description

A-Fenac Plus 75mg/2ml & 20mg/2ml Injection combines two powerful active ingredients, Diclofenac sodium (75mg) and Lignocaine (20mg), designed to provide rapid pain relief and local anesthesia. Diclofenac sodium, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), works to reduce inflammation and pain, while Lignocaine (also known as Lidocaine) provides local numbness by blocking nerve signals in the affected area. This combination makes it ideal for managing pain associated with conditions such as back pain, postoperative pain, trauma, fractures, and renal colic. The injection is typically administered by a healthcare professional for quick and effective pain management.

Functions

A-Fenac Plus Injection functions by combining the anti-inflammatory effects of Diclofenac with the numbing properties of Lignocaine. Diclofenac helps to alleviate pain and swelling caused by inflammation, while Lignocaine works as a local anesthetic to numb the area where the injection is administered, providing immediate pain relief. This dual-action formulation is particularly effective in treating acute pain and discomfort, especially in cases of musculoskeletal conditions and injuries. It provides fast-acting relief, helping to reduce pain and improve mobility in a variety of clinical situations.

Precautions

Before using A-Fenac Plus Injection, patients with a history of gastrointestinal issues such as ulcers, peptic ulcers, or bleeding disorders should exercise caution. This medication should also be avoided by individuals with known kidney, liver, or heart problems, as well as those with hematologic disorders. Regular monitoring of liver function and blood tests is recommended for patients on long-term therapy or the elderly. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is crucial to consult your healthcare provider before using this medication, as it may not be safe during these periods.

Side Effects

Like all medications, A-Fenac Plus Injection may cause side effects. Common side effects include stomach upset, nausea, and gastric pain, particularly in those with sensitive digestive systems. Other possible side effects include headache, swelling (edema), liver and kidney issues, skin allergies, and blood abnormalities. Some patients may also experience pain or irritation at the injection site. If any of these side effects persist or worsen, it is important to seek medical attention immediately. Severe side effects such as gastrointestinal bleeding or liver damage, though rare, require urgent medical care.

Cautions

A-Fenac Plus Injection should not be used by individuals allergic to aspirin or other anti-inflammatory medications. It is also contraindicated in patients with active peptic ulcers, proctitis (inflammation of the rectum), or certain blood disorders. Caution should be taken when administering this injection to individuals with pre-existing kidney, liver, or cardiac conditions. Always inform your doctor if you are undergoing other treatments, as drug interactions may occur. It is essential to follow the prescribed dosage and avoid exceeding the recommended frequency of administration. If you miss a dose or experience any issues, consult your healthcare provider for guidance on how to proceed.
