    Local Anesthetics • The first local anesthetics History were cocaine and procaine (Novacain) developed in ltlate 1800’s • They were called “esters” because of their chemical composition • Esters had a slow onset and short half life so they did not last long History • Derivatives of esters called “amides” were developed in the 1930’s • Amides had a faster onset and a longer half life so they lasted longer • AidAmides quiklickly repldlaced esters • In dentistry today, esters are only found in topical anesthetics Generic Local Anesthetics • There are five amide anesthetics used in dentistry today. Their generic names are; – lidocaine – mepivocaine – bupivacaine – prilocaine – artica ine • Each is known by at least one brand name Brand Names • lidocaine : Xylocaine, Lignospan, Alphacaine, Octocaine • mepivocaine: Carbocaine, Arestocaine, Isocaine, Polocaine, Scandonest • prilocaine : Citanest, Citanest Forte • bibupivaca ine: MiMarcaine • articaine: Septocaine, Zorcaine About Local Anesthetic (LA) • Local anesthetic (LA) works by binding with sodium channels in neurons preventing depolarization • LA is inactivated at the injection site when it is absorbed into the blood stream and redistributed throughout the body • If enough LA is absorbed, sodium channels in other parts of the body will be blocked, causing systemic side effects About LA • A clinical effect of LAs is dilation blood vessels, speeding up absorption and distribution • To counteract this dilation so anesthesia is prolonged, , a vasoconstrictor is often added to LAs • However, vasoconstrictors have side effects also Metabolism and Excretion • Most amide LAs are metabolized (inactivated) by the liver and excreted by the kidneys. • Prilocaine is partially metabolized by the lungs • Articaine is partially metabolized by enzymes in the bloo d as well as the liver.

This study compared the efficacy of two anesthetic solutions: 2% lidocaine with 1:80,000 epinephrine and 4% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine in patients with different ARTICLES ORIGINAL pulp diagnoses requiring endodontic treatment. Method: an interventional, randomized clinical trial. The sample included 36 patients who were treated at the postgraduate endodontics service at the Universidad de Cartagena in the year 2016. Descriptive statistics and the Chi2 test were used for data analysis, using a limit of 0.05. Results: articaine showed a greater anesthetic effect in vestibular mucosa (88.9%) and tip of tongue (55.6%), compared with lidocaine. The rates of anesthetic success in the lidocaine and articaine groups were 5.6% and 22.2% respectively, but this difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.633). In teeth with normal pulp, the efficacy was 27.3%, and this value considerably decreased in teeth with asymptomatic and symptomatic irreversible pulpitis, with percentages of 5.8% and 12.5% respectively, although this difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.276).

E-mail: [email protected] (*Corresponding Author) Abstract: Present study was conducted on 18 clinical case of cattle presented with various gastro-intestinal affections to TVCC, PGIVAS, Akola subjected for laparotomy surgical procedure. All clinical cases were randomly divided into three equal group (n=6) and proximal paravertebral nerve block was performed by using Lignocaine, Articaine and Ropivacaine. Comparative anaesthetic assessment of onset of action and duration of anaesthesia along with clinicophysiological parameters were evaluated. Keywords: Lignocaine, Articaine, Ropivacaine, Cattle, Paravertebral. INTRODUCTION Thoracolumbar paravertebral block is performed to anesthetize the surgical site for a flank laparotomy. This technique is preferable to infiltration anesthetic techniques because of the smaller volume of anesthetic agent required, production of a more extensive anesthesia of the abdominal wall and reduced postoperative swelling and hematoma (Rostami & Vesal 2011). In ruminants, flank region is the most common site for laparotomy; caesarian section, rumenotomy, intestinal obstruction, volvulus, ruminal fistula, foreign body syndrome and hernia etc. (Lee, 2006; Kumar, 2003). Paravertebral nerve block results effective analgesia in all layers of the abdominal wall while the tissue infiltration, inverted L block may not produce analgesia of all muscle layers as well as peritoneum specially in fat animals (Sloss and Dufty, 1977).

  • Local Anesthetics
    Local Anesthetics Introduction and History Cocaine is a naturally occurring compound indigenous to the Andes Mountains, West Indies, and Java. It was the first anesthetic to be discovered and is the only naturally occurring local anesthetic; all others are synthetically derived. Cocaine was introduced into Europe in the 1800s following its isolation from coca beans. Sigmund Freud, the noted Austrian psychoanalyst, used cocaine on his patients and became addicted through self-experimentation. In the latter half of the 1800s, interest in the drug became widespread, and many of cocaine's pharmacologic actions and adverse effects were elucidated during this time. In the 1880s, Koller introduced cocaine to the field of ophthalmology, and Hall introduced it to dentistry Overwiev Local anesthetics (LAs) are drugs that block the sensation of pain in the region where they are administered. LAs act by reversibly blocking the sodium channels of nerve fibers, thereby inhibiting the conduction of nerve impulses. Nerve fibers which carry pain sensation have the smallest diameter and are the first to be blocked by LAs. Loss of motor function and sensation of touch and pressure follow, depending on the duration of action and dose of the LA used. LAs can be infiltrated into skin/subcutaneous tissues to achieve local anesthesia or into the epidural/subarachnoid space to achieve regional anesthesia (e.g., spinal anesthesia, epidural anesthesia, etc.). Some LAs (lidocaine, prilocaine, tetracaine) are effective on topical application and are used before minor invasive procedures (venipuncture, bladder catheterization, endoscopy/laryngoscopy). LAs are divided into two groups based on their chemical structure. The amide group (lidocaine, prilocaine, mepivacaine, etc.) is safer and, hence, more commonly used in clinical practice.

The half-life of a drug is the amount of time that it will take the plasma concentration of a drug to be halved. Articaine contains an Articaine additional ester group that is quickly (and mostly) hydrolyzed by plasma esterases. This gives articaine an elimination half-life of approximately 20 minutes. The half-life of lidocaine is approximately 90 minutes. Thiophene ring Lidocaine is mostly hydrolyzed in the liver. The enzymes in the liver act slower than plasma enzymes. This makes reinjection of articaine safer, since the majority of the initial dose is metabolized after approximately half an hour, and the reinjected dose will not be added to the initial dose.1 Lidocaine Local Articaine Lidocaine anesthetic Elimination 20 minutes 90 minutes half-time Benzene ring Page 1 LOCAL ANESTHESIA IN DENTISTRY Clinical tips Drug potency & Lipid solubility protein bound agents are not reabsorbed into the central circulation as quickly and Lipid solubility affects the anesthetic therefore may have a lesser tendency potency.

    Prescribing Information Carbocaine 1% 10 mg/mL, Mepivacaine Hydrochloride Injection, USP Carbocaine 2% 20 mg/mL, Mepivacaine Hydrochloride Injection, USP Local Anesthetic Pfizer Canada Inc. DATE OF REVISION: 17300 Trans-Canada Highway August 2, 2017 Kirkland, Québec NTF: February 14, 2018 H9J 2M5 Control Number: (204807) 1 Prescribing Information Carbocaine 1% 10 mg/mL, Mepivacaine Hydrochloride Injection, USP Carbocaine 2% 20 mg/mL, Mepivacaine Hydrochloride Injection, USP Local Anesthetic Pharmacology: Mepivacaine stabilizes the neuronal membrane and prevents the initiation and transmission of nerve impulses, thereby effecting local anesthesia. Its pharmacological properties are somewhat similar to those of lidocaine, which it resembles chemically. Its action is more rapid in onset and somewhat more prolonged than that of lidocaine. It has been employed for all types of infiltration and regional nerve block anesthesia. Onset of anesthesia is rapid, the time of onset for sensory block ranging from about 3 to 20 minutes depending upon such factors as the anesthetic technique, the type of block, the concentration of the solution and the individual patient. The degree of motor blockade produced is dependent on the concentration of the solution. The 1% concentration will block sensory and sympathetic conduction without loss of motor function and will be effective in small superficial nerve blocks. The 2% concentration of mepivacaine will produce complete sensory and motor block of any nerve group. The duration of anesthesia also varies depending upon the technique and type of block, the concentration and the individual. Mepivacaine will normally provide anesthesia which is adequate for 2 to 2½ hours of surgery. It has been reported that vasoconstrictors do not significantly prolong anesthesia with mepivacaine, but epinephrine (1:200 000) may be added to the mepivacaine solution to promote local hemostasis and to delay systemic absorption of the anesthetic.
