3. How to use Octocaine 20 mg/ml + 0.02 mg/ml injectable solution

Your dentist will determine the dose and method of administration of Octocaine 20 mg/ml + 0.02 mg/ml injectable solution, guided by the following recommendations.

The smallest possible volume of solution necessary to achieve effective anesthesia should be used.

Octocaine 20 mg/ml + 0.02 mg/ml injectable solution

  • Recommended dose (number of 1.8 ml cartridges: 0.5-1.0). Maximum dose: 5.5 cartridges of 1.8 ml.

The dosage depends on the patient's idiosyncrasy, the area to be anesthetized, the vascularization of the tissues involved, and the anesthetic technique.

The maximum dose in 24 hours is 500 mg of lidocaine, and it should not exceed 7 mg/kg of body weight in adults.

Use in children:

Do not administer to children under 4 years old.

In children under 10 years old, it is rare to need to use more than 0.5 cartridges per procedure.

The average dose to be used is in the range of 20 mg to 30 mg of lidocaine hydrochloride per session.

Do not exceed the equivalent of 5 mg of lidocaine hydrochloride per kilogram of body weight.

Dosage in elderly patients and patients with underlying diseases:

In elderly patients, there may be an increase in plasma levels of Octocaine 20 mg/ml + 0.02 mg/ml injectable solution due to decreased metabolic processes and lower volume of distribution. The same applies to weak patients or those with liver or kidney problems. Therefore, in all these cases, the lowest possible dose that achieves a deep anesthetic effect should be used.

Method of administration

Infiltration and perineural route. For dental anesthesia only.

Aspiration is highly recommended as it avoids the risk of intravascular injection and minimizes the possibility of undesirable effects. The preparation should always be administered slowly.

For single use.Opened cartridges should not be used in other patients. Any unused portion of the solution should be discarded.

If you use more Octocaine 20 mg/ml + 0.02 mg/ml injectable solution than you should

In case of overdose, adverse reactions may occur at the level of the nervous system and the heart.

The initial symptoms are agitation, sensation of numbness of the lips, tongue, and around the mouth, dizziness, vision and hearing disturbances, tinnitus. More severe symptoms include difficulty speaking, muscle stiffness, or spasms that can trigger generalized convulsions.

Cardiovascular symptoms include a feeling of heat, sweating, alterations in blood pressure and heart rhythm, which can lead to cardiovascular arrest.

If you experience any of these symptoms, immediately or shortly after being administered Octocaine 20 mg/ml + 0.02 mg/ml injectable solution, inform your dentist immediately.

If you have been administered more than recommended, consult your doctor or pharmacist immediately or call the Toxicology Information Service. Phone 91 562 04 20, indicating the medicine and the amount used.

This information is intended only for healthcare professionals

Local injection / Dental use

Injections should always be performed slowly and with prior aspiration in at least two planes (by rotating the needle 180°) to avoid accidental intravascular injection.

The injection rate should not exceed 0.5 ml in 15 seconds, which is equivalent to one cartridge per minute.

The technical data sheet includes guidelines and recommendations to ensure the correct use of the product (see Dosage and method of administration; Special warnings and precautions for use).

Instructions for use:

  1. Open the package.
  2. Remove a cartridge and place it in the syringe body.
  3. Adjust the syringe piston over the cartridge plunger.
  4. Carefully insert the short end of the double-pointed needle into the syringe end and proceed to screw it in to secure it.
  5. Remove and discard the protector from the long end of the needle and proceed with the injection.

AUTO-ASPIRATION

To perform auto-aspiration, an automatic aspiration syringe is required. Auto-aspiration is performed by applying gentle pressure on the piston and immediately releasing it. The elastic spring of the cartridge membrane, which is initially pressed against the base axis of the syringe, creates negative pressure inside the cartridge, ensuring aspiration.

MANUAL ASPIRATION

To perform manual aspiration, a syringe with a hook or harpoon is required. Manual aspiration is achieved when the harpoon is fixed to the anesthesia cartridge and the plunger is pulled back.
