|February 1, 1975
Summary
Citanest Forte, a prilocaine HCL local anesthetic, proved effective and safe in a clinical evaluation of 3,000 oral surgery patients. It can be safely substituted for other anesthetics in routine oral surgery.
Area of Science:
- Dentistry
- Anesthesiology
- Pharmacology
Background:
- Local anesthetics are essential for pain management in oral surgery.
- Prilocaine hydrochloride (HCL) is a widely used local anesthetic.
- Evaluating new or existing anesthetic formulations for efficacy and safety is crucial.
Purpose of the Study:
- To clinically evaluate Citanest Forte (prilocaine HCL) for effectiveness and safety.
- To determine if Citanest Forte can be a safe alternative to existing local anesthetics in oral surgery.
Main Methods:
- A clinical evaluation was conducted.
- The study involved 3,000 patients undergoing oral surgery.
- Effectiveness and safety data were collected and analyzed.
Main Results:
- Citanest Forte demonstrated effectiveness as a local anesthetic.
- The drug was found to be safe for use in oral surgery patients.
- No significant adverse events were reported.
Conclusions:
- Citanest Forte is a useful local anesthetic for oral surgery.
- The study indicates Citanest Forte can be safely substituted for other local anesthetics in routine oral procedures.
