Introduction: In Bradycardia Bradycardia refers to a heart rate that is slower than the normal heart rate. Tropensa Injection helps to bring back the blood pressure within normal range. This relaxes the heart, treats decreased heart rate (bradycardia) and prevents any sudden fall of blood pressure or even serious complications that might have otherwise followed due to low blood pressure. It is given as an injection by a doctor or nurse in a hospital setup. It should not be self-administered. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully to get maximum benefit.

Benefits: Your doctor or nurse will give you this medicine. Kindly do not self administer.

Description: Tropensa Injection is used to treat bradycardia (slow heart rate). It helps to restore normal heartbeat in cardiac arrest cases. This injection is also given before general anesthesia to reduce saliva secretions. It even works as an antidote to some insecticide poisoning. Tropensa Injection may be used in combination with other medicines to reverse the effect of muscle relaxants during surgery. It is given by your doctor or nurse, who will make sure you get the right amount. Let your doctor know about all other medications you are taking as some may affect, or be affected by this medicine. Common side effects of this medicine include blurred vision and fast heart rate. Dry mouth may also occur while using this medicine so, try to do frequent mouth rinses, maintain good oral hygiene and increase water intake. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also consult their doctor before taking this medicine. It is better to avoid this medication if you are suffering from any severe heart disease or urinary retention.

How to Use: Tropensa Injection is an anticholinergic medication. It works by blocking the activity of a chemical messenger (acetylcholine). This helps dry up secretions (saliva, sweat, etc.) from glands before surgery, increases a low heart rate and decreases intestinal contractions (spasms). It also works as an antidote in certain types of poisoning and reverses the side effects of certain muscle relaxing medicines.

Safety Advice: If you miss a dose of Tropensa Injection, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.
