Allergic to xylocaine: other options?
|
|
Thread rating:  |
zerge@hotmail.com - 14 Jul 2005 19:27 GMT Last time I went to the dentist I had a moderate reaction to xylocaine. I felt somewhat weak and out of breath; I guess my blood pressure lowered. Now I'm afraid of going to the dentist again. Are there any safer options to xylocaine? Thanks for the help

Have you ever passed out from a shot before, or from giving blood?

Now that you mention it you are right, I ASSUMED it was an allergic reaction, but there was no rash, no edema, nothing like that. Only what I describe above. What is vasovagal hypotension and what causes it? Is it dangerous?

Dr. Noogle - 15 Jul 2005 20:30 GMT If you were allergic to any of the components, I wouldn´t risk giving you another shot. If I were you I would check up with an allergologist (or however you may spell that), and see what you are allergic to. Probably you are allergic to some preservative in the cartdrige, in which case your dentist could maybe use a dermatologic cartdrige of lidocaine, which has different preservatives

We call it an 'allergist' in the US.

Otolaryngologist: A physician specialized in diagnosing and treating diseases of the head and neck, especially those involving the ears, nose, and throat (ENT). Also called an ENT, ENT doctor, or ENT physician.

Stormin Mormon - 16 Jul 2005 22:37 GMT In the US, we have "allergist" who is a person studying or treating allergies.
I've suffered allergies for about 30 years, and have seen one of them in my youth. He had a thing for syringes, aparently. His office staff has employed more syringes on me than anyone before, or since.

Stormin Mormon - 16 Jul 2005 22:30 GMT I've heard that the lido in spinal trays is without preservatives. But, that may be incorrect.
Do I remember that procaine used to have some reactions after use? Lido was supposed to be more friendly.
How about mepivicaine, priolocaine, articaine, and my favorite, vaudvillecane (different spelling).

If you were allergic to any of the components, I wouldn´t risk giving you another shot. If I were you I would check up with an allergologist (or however you may spell that), and see what you are allergic to. Probably you are allergic to some preservative in the cartdrige, in which case your dentist could maybe use a dermatologic cartdrige of lidocaine, which has different preservatives

Ester-based anesthetics such as procaine were said to have a higher incidence of allergy than amide-based anesthetics such as licocaine, prilocaine, mepivacaine.

Never heard of a documented case in the UK. The allergy was probably due to some of the preservatives that they use. Go to a dermatologist and get some patch testing done.
