POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Marcaine Spinal should only be used by physicians with experience of
regional
anaesthesia or under the supervision of such a physician. The lowest
possible dose for
adequate anaesthesia should be sought.
The doses given below are guidelines for adults. The dose must be
adjusted for the
individual patient.
The dose must be reduced in the elderly patients and patients in the
late stages of
pregnancy.

intervertebral space.
There is currently no
clinical
experience of doses higher than 20 mg. Intravenous access
must be
established prior to
administration of Marcaine Spinal.
A spinal injection must not be given until the subarachnoid space has
been clearly
identified via lumbar puncture (clear cerebrospinal fluid exits via
the spinal needle or is
seen on aspiration). In the case of failed anaesthesia only one new
attempt should be
made to administer the medicinal product, which should be given at a
different level and
with a smaller volume. One reason for lack of effect may be poor
intrathecal distribution
of the medicinal product, which may be rectified by adjusting the
position of the patient
