Description

Lidocaine Hydrochloride is the water-soluble hydrochloride salt form of lidocaine, a widely used amino amide-type local anesthetic and antiarrhythmic agent. This compound is critical for providing rapid-onset, intermediate-duration anesthesia and analgesia in various medical and pharmaceutical applications. It is an essential active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) for manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, veterinary medicine, and research sectors, where reliable quality and consistent performance are paramount for product efficacy and safety.

Application

• Pharmaceutical API: Primary use as the active ingredient in injectable local anesthetics for surgical, dental, and diagnostic procedures.
• Topical Formulations: Key component in creams, gels, ointments, and patches for treating localized pain, itching, and minor skin irritations.
• Cardiac Medicine: Used as a Class Ib antiarrhythmic agent in intravenous formulations for managing ventricular arrhythmias.
• Veterinary Medicine: Employed in anesthetic and analgesic preparations for companion animals and livestock.
• Ophthalmic Solutions: Incorporated into eye drops for corneal anesthesia during tonometry and minor ocular surgeries.
• Research & Development: Serves as a standard and reference material in pharmacological studies and analytical method development.

Quality Control

Our Lidocaine Hydrochloride is manufactured under strict quality management systems. It is typically tested to meet or exceed relevant pharmacopoeial standards such as USP, EP, and BP. Each batch is accompanied by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) verifying critical parameters including identity, purity, assay, and impurity profiles. We ensure traceability and batch-to-batch consistency to support our clients' regulatory and quality requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). The material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be kept in its original packaging until use to prevent moisture uptake.
