It does not contain all the available information. It does not take the place of talking to your dental practitioner or dental nurse. All medicines have risks and benefits. Your dental practitioner has weighed the risks of you using this medicine against the benefits they expect it will have for you. IF YOU HAVE ANY CONCERNS ABOUT BEING GIVEN THIS MEDICINE, ASK YOUR DENTAL PRACTITIONER. KEEP THIS LEAFLET. You may need to read it again. WHAT CITANEST DENTAL WITH OCTAPRESSIN IS USED FOR Citanest DENTAL with Octapressin is used to prevent or relieve pain during dental procedures, but it will not put you to sleep.This medicine belongs to a group of medicines called local anaesthetics. It is injected into the gums and works by making the nerves unable to pass pain messages to the brain. Depending on the amount used, it will either totally stop pain or will cause a partial loss of feeling. The felypressin makes the blood vessels at the site of injection narrower, which means you bleed less. It is then easier for your dental practitioner to see what is happening. ASK YOUR DENTAL PRACTITIONER IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT WHY THIS MEDICINE HAS BEEN PRESCRIBED FOR YOU. This medicine is not addictive.

3% CITANEST ® DENTAL WITH OCTAPRESSIN ® PRODUCT INFORMATION NAME OF THE MEDICINE 3% Citanest ® Dental with Octapressin ® contains prilocaine hydrochloride and felypressin as the active substances. The chemical structure of prilocaine hydrochloride is: The structure of felypressin is: Cys-Phe-Phe-Gln-Asn-Cys-Pro-Lys-GlyNH 2 DESCRIPTION 3% Citanest Dental with Octapressin is a sterile isotonic aqueous solution. Excipients: sodium chloride and water for injections and may also contain sodium hydroxide and/or hydrochloric acid for pH adjustment to 3.5-5.2. The chemical name of prilocaine hydrochloride is 2-(propylamino)-o-propionotoluidide hydrochloride; and it is also known as propitocaine hydrochloride. It has a molecular weight of 256.8. The CAS number of prilocaine hydrochloride is 1786-81-8. The chemical name of the vasoconstrictor octapressin is 2-(phenylalanine)-8-lysine vasopressin; also known as felypressin. It has a molecular weight of 1040.2. The CAS number for octapressin is 56-59-7. PHARMACOLOGY Prilocaine is a membrane stabilising agent and a local anaesthetic of the amide type. Prilocaine stabilises the neuronal membrane and reversibly prevents the initiation and conduction of nerve impulses thereby producing local anaesthesia. Prilocaine has a similar time of onset and potency to lignocaine. Prilocaine has a lower toxicity than lignocaine. The onset and duration of anaesthesia depend on the route of administration, status of the patient and the dosage (volume and concentration) employed. The addition of felypressin reduces the rate of absorption of prilocaine from the site of injection thereby increasing its duration of action. Felypressin is a synthetic hormone with similar properties to vasopressin. In contrast to adrenaline, felypressin does not produce ischaemia distal to or at the injection site. 3% Citanest Dental with Octapressin is therefore indicated for routine use. It is particularly suitable for use in patients for whom the use of solutions containing sympathomimetic agents is contrain Llegiu el document complet
