📋Overview
Bupivacaine is a local anesthetic commonly used to numb specific areas of the body during surgical, dental, or diagnostic procedures. It works by blocking nerve signals in the targeted region, resulting in loss of sensation. Bupivacaine is often associated with pain management and anesthesia in both minor and major medical interventions. Its effects are typically longer-lasting compared to some other local anesthetics.
