This information is intended solely for healthcare professionals:

To avoid intravenous injection, a prior aspiration should always be performed before injection. The use of the appropriate syringe for injection for the infiltration of anesthesia ensures perfect functioning, as well as maximum safety against cartridge breakage. Only intact cartridges should be injected.

In order to avoid any risk of infection (e.g. prevention of hepatitis transmission) it is essential to use sterilized syringes and needles. The remaining content of partially used cartridges should not be administered to other patients.

For the external disinfection of cartridges, isopropyl alcohol 91% or ethanol 70% without denaturants is recommended. Solutions containing heavy metals should not be recommended, as they release ions (mercury, zinc, copper, etc.), which cause edema during the injection of local dental anesthetics.

When using any local anesthetic, oxygen, equipment, and resuscitation medications should be available.

Injection in an inflamed area should be avoided.

Before use, a visual inspection of the solution should be performed, and only transparent solutions without particles should be used.

Cartridges are for single use. If only part of the cartridge is used, the remaining content should be discarded.

Use immediately after opening the cartridge.

The disposal of unused medication and all materials that have come into contact with it will be carried out in accordance with local regulations.
