PHARMACOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION: A. 4 Local Anaesthetics PHARMACOLOGICAL ACTION: Mepivacaine is a local anaesthetic of the amide type. It has a rapid onset and intermediate duration of action. INDICATIONS: For the production of local anaesthesia for conservative and surgical interventions in the oral region (especially for dental work). CONTRA-INDICATIONS: CARBOCAINE* 3% DENTAL Injection is contra-indicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to the amide type of local anaesthetic. WARNINGS: DO NOT AUTOCLAVE. DOSAGE AND DIRECTIONS FOR USE: The dose varies and depends on the area to be anaesthetized, vascularity of the tissues, number of neuronal segments to be blocked, individual tolerances and the technique of anaesthesia. The lowest dose needed to provide effective anaesthesia should be administered. The average dose of one dental cartridge will usually suffice. This dose may be doubled if necessary to effect anaesthesia. The maximum adult dose should not exceed 400 mg mepivacaine hydrochloride, (approximately 7 mg/kg) at any one time and the total dose should not exceed 1 g in any twenty-four hour period. Any unused portion of a dental cartridge should be discarded. RESUSCITATIVE EQUIPMENT AND EMERGENCY MEDICINES SHOULD BE IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE WHEN ANY ANAESTHETIC IS USED. DISINFECTION OF CARBOCAINE* 3% DENTAL Injection cartridges: The diaphragm should be disinfected before needle puncture. Immerse only the metal cap in undiluted isopropyl alcohol or 70% ethyl alcohol for at least fifteen minutes. Only enough cartridges for one day's use should be stored in the alcohol.
