mepivacaine and Acidosis, Respiratory

mepivacaine has been researched along with Acidosis, Respiratory in 2 studies

Mepivacaine: A local anesthetic that is chemically related to BUPIVACAINE but pharmacologically related to LIDOCAINE. It is indicated for infiltration, nerve block, and epidural anesthesia. Mepivacaine is effective topically only in large doses and therefore should not be used by this route. (From AMA Drug Evaluations, 1994, p168)
mepivacaine : A piperidinecarboxamide in which N-methylpipecolic acid and 2,6-dimethylaniline have combined to form the amide bond. It is used as a local amide-type anaesthetic.

Acidosis, Respiratory: Respiratory retention of carbon dioxide. It may be chronic or acute.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The conclusion of this study was that a respiratory acidosis increased the central nervous system toxicity of local anaesthetics and that the underlying metabolic conditions modified this increase."1.25Central nervous system effects of local anaesthetic agents. ( Englesson, S; Matousek, M, 1975)
