Lidocaine is used in IV to treat what?
cardiac arrythmias
whats the most commonly used LA in dental offices?
lidocaine (xylocain, octocaine)
this is used in dentistry with 2% solution with 1:20,000 levonordefrin as a vasoconstrictor
mepivacaine
this LA can be used plain because it produces less vasodilation than lidocaine
mepivacaine
less potent and less toxic than lidocain with a slightly longer duration and lower toxicity
prilocaine
this LA can lead to methemoglobinemia
priolocaine (this is why not used for prego pt's)
the amount of epinephrine in the LA is lowered (1:200,000)
prilocaine
availible in 1.7ml cartridge
articaine
which of the following could be classified as an amide and a ester
articaine **
you want to use this LA if you have a long procedure, or expecting lots of post op pain
bupivacaine
this is used for short procedures
mepivacaine plain (no vasoconstrictor)
a contraindication for articaine is what?
allergy for sulfa drugs
none of these are administered by injection. usually topical
esters
this blocks norepinephrine reuptake resulting in vasoconstriction and hypertension.. can cause cardiac arythmias
esters
what is the most potent vasoconstrictor
cocaine
this is used as an antiarrhythmic agent and is combined with penicillin.. not used in dentistry today cuase of allergic reactions
procaine
this produces the greatest vasodilation of all of them
procaine
this is 10 times more potent and toxic than procaine
tetracaine
this is the most commonly used topical anestetic
benzocaine
this is a tetracaine congener (related to tetracaine)
benzonatate
this is used for someone that cannot tolerate amides or esters
benedryl or diphenahydramine
any anestetic without a vasoconstrictor is likely to be >>.
toxic
what does hemostatis mean? it happens with vasoconstrictors
hemostasis
what is the most common dilution rate for vasoconstrictors
1:100,000
only _ and _ are LA that are sold without vasoconstrictors
mepivicaine and prilocaine
maximum safe dose of vasoconstrictor for a healthy pt is how much?
0.2mgs
cardiac pts's can be given doses of how much epinephrine safely?
0.04mgs
the 2 most significant drug interactions with epinephrine are
tricyclic antidepressants (result in high bp)
nonselective B-bloackers (may result in hypertention)
duration of action is primarily related to
its protein-binding capacity
produce too much vasodilation to be used without a vasoconstrictor.
Lidocaine and bupivacaine
by injection near a bundle of nerves to induce anesthesia and relieve pain or spasms along several nerve pathways
nerve block
by direct injection into the subarachnoid space cerebral spinal fluid in the lumbar area
spinal
: by injection into the epidural space of the spinal column, primarily for labor & delivery
epidural
this is indicated for reversal of residual soft-tissue anestisia. return in half the time, but costs 13 dollars a dose
OraVerse – phentolamine mesylate
is used in the treatment of catecholamine-induced hypertensive crises (pheochromocytoma, MAOI crises, cocaine overdose)
Regitine (phentolamine)
what is the most commonly used topical anestetic
benzocaine
what is the second most commonly used topical anestetic
lidocaine
neither an ester or amide topical anestetic
dyclonine
this is used in the clinic and works in 30 seconds, its a needle free anestesia
oraquix
