| Uses | Like lidocaine and mepivacaine, bupivacaine is used in infiltration, spinal, and epidural anesthesia in blocking nerve transmission. Its most distinctive property is its long-lasting action. It is used for surgical intervention in urology and in lower thoracic surgery from 3 to 5 h in length, and in abdominal surgery lasting from 45 to 60 min. It is used to block the trifacial nerve, the sacral and brachial plexuses, in resetting dislocations, epidural anesthesia, and during Cesarian sections. |
