mepivacaine and Fecal Incontinence

mepivacaine has been researched along with Fecal Incontinence 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.

Fecal Incontinence: Failure of voluntary control of the anal sphincters, with involuntary passage of feces and flatus.
