Mepivacaine Hydrochloride. This product was originally used under the name Scandicaine® for epidural anesthesia in cases of short, local surgical procedures. Mepivacaine has been on the market since 1957. More recently, it was introduced into dental practices under the trade name Scandonest™ 3%. The advantage of this product is that it is available without vasoconstrictor and preservative.
However, the low clearance and the prolonged terminal half–life in neonates, makes Carbocaine less suitable for use in obstetric anaesthesia [5-7].
