intramuscular injection
The major portion of modern pharmacology funds available in a liofiliziroavnnym powder containers. Such compositions are bred saline, lidocaine or novocaine. For intramuscular injections, doctors advise to dissolve Ceftriaxone novocaine or lidocaine. For intravenous injections can be used isotonic solutions (e.g. 5% glucose solution or 0.9% sodium chloride).
It should be understood that the therapeutic effect of the drug is independent of the liquid used. If dilute Ceftriaxone for injection of lidocaine, water for injection or novocaine - the basic difference is not. However, it is evident there will be differences in sensation.

- on the vial with medicament powder bend aluminum cap and handle it disinfectant (alcohol);
- Ledokoin 1% in a volume of 3.5 ml to enter the vial;
- bottle of medicine Shake well to antibiotic completely dissolved.
Instead of one percent lidocaine can be used lidocaine 2%. In this case, the anesthetic should be diluted in a ratio of 1: 1 with water for injection (2 ml lidocaine take tool 2% to 2 ml of special water).
