Mepivacaine hydrochloride may be used as a pharmaceutical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in pharmaceutical formulations by chromatography.
정의
ChEBI: The hydrochloride salt of mepivacaine. It is used as a local anaesthetic.
Biological Functions
Mepivacaine hydrochloride (Carbocaine) is longer
acting than lidocaine and has a more rapid onset of action
(3–5 minutes). Topical application is not effective.
It has been widely used in obstetrics, but its use has declined
recently because of the early transient neurobehavioral
effects it produces. Adverse reactions associated
with mepivacaine are generally similar to those
produced by other local anesthetics. It can be used with
epinephrine or levonordefrin (dental use only).
일반 설명
Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control, provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards. Mepivacaine hydrochloride is a local anesthetic that is related chemically and pharmacologically to the amide-type local anesthetics. It is often administered via local infiltration, peripheral nerve block, etc.
