1. WHAT IS CITOCARTIN AND WHAT IS IT USED FOR
Citocartin is a local anesthetic (a substance that reduces or abolishes sensitivity in a part of the
body). This medicine is used by the dentist to anesthetize certain areas of the mouth
before performing:
- Routine procedures, such as simple single or multiple tooth extractions, cavity preparation and crown post preparation;
- More complicated surgical procedures that require deep analgesia and a reduction of blood flow in the surgical field, such as surgery on the mucous membranes, bone or pulp (soft tissue located inside the tooth), osteotomy (extraction of fractured teeth), prolonged surgical procedures, percutaneous osteosynthesis, cystectomy, mucogingival operations, apicoectomy.
2. BEFORE USING CITOCARTIN
Do not use CITOCARTIN
- If you are allergic (hypersensitive) to the active ingredients (articaine and adrenaline) or to any of the excipients of CITOCARTIN, or to other local anesthetic agents of the amide type, if you have heart problems, particularly severe disturbances of heart rhythm and conduction such as: paroxysmal tachycardia (sudden increase in heart rate) and high-frequency arrhythmias (very frequent irregular heartbeats), severe bradycardia (very reduced heart rate), second and third degree atrioventricular block.
- If you have acute heart failure (inability of the heart to pump blood throughout the body).
- If you have had a recent myocardial infarction or recent coronary bypass surgery (cardiac surgery).
- If you suffer from unstable angina (severe chest pain).
- If you have severe hypotension (low blood pressure).
- If you suffer from severe untreated or uncontrolled hypertension (high blood pressure).
- If you have severe arteriopathy (obstruction of the arteries).
- If you suffer from myasthenia gravis (muscle weakness).
- If you suffer from an eye disease known as closed-angle glaucoma.
- If you suffer from hyperthyroidism (disease resulting from an excess of thyroid hormones in the blood).
- If you have been diagnosed with a pheochromocytoma (a rare tumor of the adrenal glands).
- If you are taking medications for the treatment of depression such as monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) or tricyclic antidepressants.
- CITOCARTIN is contraindicated in children under 4 years of age.
Never use the product in anesthetics at the level of the terminal circulatory zone
Furthermore, intravenous administration and in particularly inflamed or
infected areas are contraindicated.
Pay particular attention with CITOCARTIN:
- in case of kidney or liver disorders;
- in case of diabetes;
- in case of heart problems (angina pectoris);
- in case of arteriosclerosis (progressive hardening and narrowing of the arteries);
- in case of significant blood coagulation disorders or if you are taking anticoagulants (drugs that prevent the formation of thrombi);
- if you are taking non-cardioselective β-blockers (used for the treatment of hypertension);
- if you have a previous history of epilepsy; Before treatment with Citocartin, your dentist will assess your health conditions and inject the anesthetic with caution and in small doses, after a preliminary aspiration and at all times maintaining verbal contact with you, suspending administration at the first sign of alarm (burning, tingling, electric shock sensation).
Use of CITOCARTIN with other medicines:
The product must be used with extreme caution if you are taking:
- Oral antidiabetics (medicines for the treatment of diabetes).
- Anticoagulants such as heparin and acetylsalicylic acid (drugs that prevent the formation of thrombi): patients undergoing therapy with these medicines have an increased tendency to bleeding.
- β-blockers non-cardioselective (medicines used for the treatment of hypertension): the
combined treatment may determine a sudden increase in blood pressure.
- Halothane (inhalation anesthetic): the combined treatment may cause arrhythmias.
- Digoxin: risk of arrhythmias. Inform your doctor if you are taking or have recently taken any other medicines, including those available without a prescription.
Use of CITOCARTIN with food and beverages:
The patient can eat after regaining sensitivity.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Ask your doctor for advice before taking any medicine.
During pregnancy and breastfeeding, Citocartin should only be used after consulting
your doctor and weighing the risk/benefit ratio in your case.
Consult your doctor if you suspect you are pregnant or wish to plan a pregnancy.
Driving and using machinery:
No studies have been conducted on the ability to drive vehicles and use machinery.
The dentist will have to assess whether the patient is fit to drive vehicles or
use machinery after the procedure.
Important information about some excipients of CITOCARTIN
The product contains sodium metabisulfite: in sensitive subjects, especially those with a history of
asthma or allergy, it can rarely cause severe allergic reactions and bronchospasm.
CITOCARTIN contains less than 1 mmol of sodium (23mg) per maximum daily dose and is therefore
considered essentially sodium-free.
CITOCARTIN contains adrenaline which can cause local tissue necrosis and systemic toxicity, therefore the usual precautions for the administration of
adrenaline must be observed.
3. HOW TO USE CITOCARTIN
Dosage and route of administration
This product must only be administered by your dentist, who will decide the amount of product to
administer in your case.
The dentist must use the minimum effective dose, taking into account the type of procedure,
age, weight and physical condition of the patient.
The maximum dose for adults and children over 4 years of age is 7 mg/Kg of body
weight.
The anesthetic solution should be injected slowly into the oral cavity.
