2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 (Lidocaine (2% Lidocaine and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000) and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 Injection, USP) is indicated for the production of local anesthesia for dental procedures by nerve block or infiltration techniques.
Only accepted procedures for these techniques as described in standard textbooks are recommended.
Numbing the skin before you have certain medical procedures (eg, injections, minor skin surgery) in the treated area.
2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 iontophoretic patch is a local anesthetic. It works by stopping nerves from transmitting painful impulses to the brain.
The dosage of 2% 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 solutions (Lidocaine (2% Lidocaine and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000) HCl and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000) depends on the physical status of the patient, the area of the oral cavity to be anesthetized, the vascularity of the oral tissues, and the technique of anesthesia used. The least volume of solution that results in effective local anesthesia should be administered; time should be allowed between injections to observe the patient for manifestations of an adverse reaction. For specific techniques and procedures of a local anesthesia in the oral cavity, refer to standard textbooks.
For most routine dental procedures, 2% 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 with 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000 (Lidocaine (2% Lidocaine and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000) HCl 2% with a 1:100,000 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 concentration) is preferred. However, when greater depth and a more pronounced hemostasis are required, 2% 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 with 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:50,000 (Lidocaine (2% Lidocaine and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000) HCl 2 % with 1:50,000 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 concentration) should be used.
Dosage requirements should be determined on an individual basis. In oral infiltration and / or mandibular block, initial dosages of 1.0 - 5.0 mL (1/2 to 21⁄2 cartridges) of 2% 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 (Lidocaine (2% Lidocaine and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000) HCl 2% solutions with a 1:50,000 or a 1:100,000 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 concentration) are usually effective.
In children under 10 years of age, it is rarely necessary to administer more than one-half cartridge (0.9-1.0 mL or 18-20 mg of Lidocaine (2% Lidocaine and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000)) per procedure to achieve local anesthesia for a procedure involving a single tooth. In maxillary infiltration, this amount will often suffice to the treatment of two or even three teeth. In the mandibular block, however, satisfactory anesthesia achieved with this amount of drug, will allow treatment of the teeth of an entire quadrant. Aspiration is recommended since it reduces the possibility of intravascular injection, thereby keeping the incidence of side effects and anesthetic failures to a minimum. Moreover, injection should always be made slowly.
Maximum recommended dosages for 2% 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 (Lidocaine (2% Lidocaine and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000) HCl 2% solutions with a 1:50,000 or a 1:100,000 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 concentration).
Adult
For normal healthy adults, the amount of Lidocaine (2% Lidocaine and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000) HCl administered should be kept below 500 mg, and in any case, should not exceed 7 mg/kg (3.2 mg/lb) of body weight.
Pediatric
Pediatric patients : It is difficult to recommend a maximum dose of any drug for pediatric patients since this varies as a function of age and weight. For pediatric patients of less than ten years who have a normal lean body mass and normal body development, the maximum dose may be determined by the application of one of the standard pediatric drug formulas (e.g., Clark's rule). For example, in pediatric patients of five years weighing 50 Ibs, the dose of Lidocaine (2% Lidocaine and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000) hydrochloride should not exceed 75-100mg when calculated according to Clark's rule. In any case, the maximum dose of Lidocaine (2% Lidocaine and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000) hydrochloride should not exceed 7 mg/kg (3.2 mg/lb) of body weight.
NOTE :
Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration whenever the solution and container permit. Solutions that are discolored and or contain particulate matter should not be used and any unused portion of a cartridge of 2% 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 should be discarded.

What is the most important information I should know about 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000?
Allergy or hypersensitivity to amide-type local anaesthetics, sodium metabisulfite or to any excipients of 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000/ Adrenaline. Detection of suspected hypersensitivity by skin testing is of limited value.
Local anaesthetics are contraindicated for epidural and spinal anaesthesia in patients with uncorrected hypotension or coagulation disorders or in patients receiving anticoagulation treatment.
Local anaesthetic techniques must not be used when there is inflammation and/or sepsis in the region of the proposed injection and/or in the presence of septicaemia.
General contraindications related to epidural anaesthesia, regardless of the local anaesthetic used, should be taken into account.
Adrenaline is contraindicated in conditions where the production or exacerbation of tachycardia may prove fatal eg, thyrotoxicosis or severe heart disease, or in obstetrics when maternal blood pressure exceeds 130/80 mmHg.
Solutions with adrenaline must not be used for local analgesia in parts of the body with compromised blood supply or supplied by end arteries eg, fingers, toes, nose, ears or penis. There is a possibility of producing arterial vasoconstriction and subsequent ischaemic gangrene distal to the site of injection.
Solutions with adrenaline must not be used for IV regional techniques.
Solutions with adrenaline should not be used in patients with known sensitivity to sympathomimetic amines.
Solutions with adrenaline should not be used in most patients with cerebral arteriosclerosis.

What are the possible side effects of 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000?
Adverse experiences following the administration of Lidocaine (2% Lidocaine and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000) are similar in nature to those observed with other amide-type local anesthetic agents. These adverse experiences are, in general, dose-related and may result from high plasma levels (which may be caused by excessive dosage, rapid absorption, unintended intravascular injection or slow metabolic degradation), injection technique, volume of injection, hypersensitivity, idiosyncrasy or diminished tolerance on the part of the patient. Serious adverse experiences are generally systemic in nature. The following types are those most commonly reported :
Central Nervous System
CNS manifestations are excitatory and/or depressant and may be characterized by lightheadedness, nervousness, apprehension, euphoria, confusion, dizziness, drowsiness, tinnitus, blurred or double vision, vomiting, sensations of heat, cold or numbness, twitching, tremors, convulsions, unconsciousness, respiratory depression and arrest. The excitatory manifestations may be very brief or may not occur at all, in which case the first manifestation of toxicity may be drowsiness merging into unconsciousness and respiratory arrest.
Drowsiness following the administration of Lidocaine (2% Lidocaine and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000) is usually an early sign of a high blood level of the drug and may occur as a consequence of rapid absorption.
Cardiovascular system
Cardiovascular manifestations in response to Lidocaine (2% Lidocaine and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000) are usually depressant and are characterized by bradycardia, hypotension, and cardiovascular collapse, which may lead to cardiac arrest. In addition, the beta-adrenergic receptor-stimulating action of 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 may lead to excitatory cardiovascular responses, such as tachycardia, palpitations, and hypertension.
Signs and symptoms of depressed cardiovascular function may commonly result from a vasovagal reaction, particularly if the patient is in an upright position. Less commonly, they may result from a direct effect of the drug. Failure to recognize the premonitory signs such as sweating, a feeling of faintness, changes in pulse or sensorium may result in progressive cerebral hypoxia and seizure or serious cardiovascular catastrophe. Management consists of placing the patient in the recumbent position and ventilation with oxygen. Supportive treatment of circulatory depression may require the administration of intravenous fluids and, when appropriate, a vasopressor (e.g, ephedrine) as directed by the clinical situation.
Allergic reactions
Allergic reactions are characterized by cutaneous lesions, urticaria, edema, anaphylactoid reactions, or dyspnea due to bronchoconstriction. Allergic reactions as a result of sensitivity to Lidocaine (2% Lidocaine and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000) are extremely rare and, if they occur, should be managed by conventional means. The detection of sensitivity by skin testing is of doubtful value.
Neurologic reactions
The incidences of adverse reactions (e.g., persistent neurologic deficit) associated with the use of local anesthetics may be related to the technique employed, the total dose of local anesthetic administered, the particular drug used, the route of administration, and the physical condition of the patient.
Persistent paresthesias of the lips, tongue, and oral tissues have been reported with the use of Lidocaine (2% Lidocaine and 2% Lidocaine and Epinephrine 1:100,000 1:100,000), with slow, incomplete, or no recovery. These post-marketing events have been reported chiefly following nerve blocks in the mandible and have involved the trigeminal nerve and its branches.
