<p>Readiness for emergencies.The lowest dosage that gives effective anaesthesia should be used in order to avoid high plasma levels and serious systemic side effects. Injection of repeated doses of Bupivacaine Hydrocholoride may cause significant increase in blood levels with each additional dose, due to accumulation of the drug or its metabolites or due to slow metabolic degradation. Tolerance varies with the status of the patient. Debilitated, elderly patients and acutely ill patients should be given reduced doses commensurate with age and physical condition. Caution is advised in administration of repeat doses of Bupivacaine Hydrocholoride to patients with severe liver disease.Local anaesthetic procedures should be used with caution when there is inflammation and/or sepsis in the region of the proposed injection.</p>
