Baby

The non-occupant is an anesthetic for superficial anesthesia. The drug is used in dentistry and ENT-practice, as it has a local anesthetic effect. International and chemical name: benzocaine, 4-aminobenzoic acid ethyl ester. The substance has an ester structure, with local application reduces the excitability of pain receptors and the conductivity of nerve fibers. Reduces pain, temperature and tactile sensitivity. Affects the nerve fibers that conduct sympathetic, painful and postganglionic fibers. Reduces the permeability of membranes for sodium and potassium ions, reducing the level of excitability of nerve fibers.

Indications of the baby

The medication is prescribed to children of childhood to eliminate the pain syndrome that appears when teeth are erupted. According to the testimony to the application, Baby can be used in both dental and ENT practice.

Release form

The preparation has a release form - a solution. The baby is available in 10 ml vials in cardboard packages. The liquid is transparent or with a yellow tint with the consistency of the syrup and the aroma of chamomile.

1 ml of the drug contains: 3 mg benzocaine, ethanol 96%, chamomile flavor, sorbitol, potassium dihydrogen phosphate, purified water and sodium monohydrogen phosphate. To prevent damage to the teeth, sorbitol is used, a sugar substitute that does not cause caries.

Pharmacodynamics

The non-occupant blocks the excitability of the membranes of the nerve endings. Pharmacodynamics of benzocaine indicates its anesthetic properties. It affects the threshold of perception of sensitive receptors, which suppress and transmit painful impulses. Getting on the mucous membranes of the drug reduces sensitivity: perception of hot and cold, physical effects.

The pronounced reaction is observed when acting on sympathetic postganglionic and pain fibers. The active substance reduces the permeability of membranes and the level of irritation of nerve fibers.

Pharmacokinetics

After application to the mucous membranes of the oral cavity, the medication has an analgesic effect on the gums and teeth. The pharmacokinetics of besident is characterized by low absorption and hydrolysis into ethanol and p-aminobenzoic acid.

Anesthetic action develops quickly and persists for several hours. The active substances of the solution are absorbed on the surface of nerve fibers, weakening their sensitivity when exposed to various stimuli.

Dosing and administration

Since the baby is used for the treatment of children, the method of administration and dosage should be prescribed by a doctor. The product is intended for external use only. 1-2 drops of the solution with a cotton swab are applied to the tooth gums with massage movements. The procedure is carried out up to 3 times a day.

Typically, the solution is used until the full eruption of the milk teeth and until the appearance of permanent teeth.

Use of the baby during pregnancy

Since the local anesthetic is intended for the treatment of children of childhood, its use during pregnancy is not advisable. To anesthetize the oral cavity during pregnancy and lactation, women are prescribed safe means. Such medications do not penetrate the systemic circulation and do not pass through the placental barrier.

Contraindications

Anesthetic drops are not allowed for use with an individual intolerance of the active substance - benzocaine. There were no other contraindications to the use. The medicine can be used for teething and treating teeth in children from birth.

Side effects of the baby

If the Bacterium is used on serious wound surfaces, it can provoke an increase in methaemoglobin in the blood and the associated deterioration in the transport of oxygen.

Most often, side effects manifest themselves in the form of allergic reactions: urticaria, swelling, bronchospasm, anaphylactic shock.

[16], [17], [18], [19],

Overdose

If the dose prescribed by the doctor is not met, symptoms of an overdose appear. Most often, adverse symptoms are manifested as an increase in side effects: urticaria, swelling, bronchospasm, anaphylactic reactions.

Treatment of an overdose is symptomatic and requires withdrawal of the drug.

[22]

Interactions with other drugs

To eliminate pain during teething in children, pediatricians appoint special solutions, drops and ointments. To achieve therapeutic effect, several means can be used simultaneously.

Interaction with other medications depends on the child's age. It is not recommended to use several local anesthetics, since this can provoke strong allergic reactions. It is acceptable to use drugs of different forms of release. 

[23], [24], [25], [26], [27], [28], [29], [30]

Storage conditions

The solution for local anesthesia should be kept in a place protected from direct sunlight and moisture. According to the storage conditions, the temperature should not exceed 25 ° C. If these recommendations are not observed, the medicine loses its physicochemical and pharmacological properties.

[31], [32], [33],

Shelf life

The child is allowed to use within 60 months from the production date. This expiration date is valid provided that the storage conditions are met. At the expiration of this time, the drug is prohibited to use and must be disposed of.
