Description
Bupivacaine Hydrochloride Product Overview
Bupivacaine hydrochloride monohydrate (C18H28N2O·HCl·H2O) is a white crystalline powder that is soluble in water. It is a racemic amide local anesthetic with a long duration of action.
Pharmaceutical companies use it in solutions for spinal anesthesia, often as hyperbaric solutions with dextrose, as well as in epidural and nerve block injections, and in liposomal extended-release forms. Similarly, related amide local anesthetics in our range include its single-enantiomer relative Ropivacaine Hydrochloride, and Lidocaine Hydrochloride and Prilocaine.
Because it is injected, sterile production with endotoxin control remains required. Zyntex therefore supplies bupivacaine hydrochloride only to licensed pharmaceutical companies.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does bupivacaine differ from ropivacaine?
Both are long-acting amide local anesthetics, but bupivacaine is a racemic mixture, whereas ropivacaine is a single enantiomer with lower cardiotoxic potential.
Who can purchase this API?
Only pharmaceutical companies holding the licenses required for API purchase as well as use in their country.
How can I get a price and documents?
Prices depend on quantity, packaging and destination, so please contact us with your required volume. We then send a quotation together with the CoA and SDS.
