About El-Ligno 20Mg Inj 30Ml

El-Ligno 20Mg Inj 30Ml is indicated for the production of regional or local anaesthesia during surgery or medical procedures. Additionally, it is indicated in the management of ventricular arrhythmia (abnormal heartbeat) associated with acute myocardial infarction, or cardiac surgery. 

El-Ligno 20Mg Inj 30Ml contains ‘Lidocaine’ that blocks the influx (entry) of sodium ions into the membrane that surrounds the nerves, thereby preventing initiation and conduction of impulses; hence providing an anaesthetic effect. El-Ligno 20Mg Inj 30Ml blocks cardiac sodium channels, thereby treating arrhythmia.

El-Ligno 20Mg Inj 30Ml will be administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as dizziness, high/low blood pressure, nausea, vomiting, and paresthesia (burning or prickling sensation).

Disease/Condition Glossary

Local anaesthesia: It causes numbing/loss of sensation to a specific area of the body. It is used to treat pain, or to prevent pain during surgery or medical procedure.

Ventricular arrhythmia: Ventricular arrhythmia is a condition in which abnormal heartbeats originate in the ventricles (lower chambers of the heart). This limits/prevents the heart's ability to pump blood throughout the body. Symptoms include palpitations (a feeling as if the heart is pounding), chest pain, fainting, sweating, shortness of breath, and light-headedness.
