Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Lident Baby is a combined preparation for topical use in dentistry with analgesic and antimicrobial effects. After application to the oral mucosa, lidocaine has a local anesthetic effect, and cetylpyridinium chloride is antiseptic.
Pharmacokinetics
After applying the gel to the mucous membrane of the mouth, the absorption of lidocaine occurs quickly. Absorption of cetylpyridinium chloride in the oral cavity is negligible.
The degree of binding of lidocaine to blood plasma proteins, including alpha 1- acid glycoprotein (ACGP), is approximately 66%. Binding depends on the concentration of ACGP, any change in the level of ACGP can affect the content of lidocaine in the blood plasma.
Lidocaine is metabolized to a large extent (approximately 90%) in the liver. As a result of rapid dealkylation, monoethylglycinexylidide and glycinexylidide are formed.
Lidocaine is excreted through the kidneys mainly in the form of metabolites (~ 90%), less than 10% of the substance is excreted unchanged.
Indications for use
It is indicated for the relief of teething pain and for reducing gum irritation.
Contraindications
- intolerance to fructose;
- age up to three months;
- established hypersensitivity to amide anesthetics;
