Xylocard is primarily used to treat heart rhythm disorders, especially those characterized by irregular heartbeats such as ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia. The drug helps regulate the electrical activity of the heart, which contributes to restoring the normal rhythm of its heartbeats.
Xylocard can be used as a local anesthetic in certain cases, as it works to temporarily numb the tissues to relieve pain in the targeted areas.
