Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Lidocaine, a local anesthetic, stabilizes neuronal membranes by inhibiting sodium ion channels, blocking initiation and conduction of nerve impulses. Epinephrine causes vasoconstriction via alpha-1 adrenergic receptor activation, reducing systemic absorption of lidocaine and prolonging local effect.
Scandonest L (mepivacaine hydrochloride) is an amide-type local anesthetic that stabilizes neuronal membranes by inhibiting sodium ion influx across the membrane, thereby blocking nerve impulse initiation and conduction.
Topical administration via laryngeal spray: 1-2 sprays (10-20 mg) to the larynx and pharynx, repeated as needed up to every 1-2 hours, not to exceed 8 sprays per 24 hours.
Dental infiltration or nerve block: 1.3 mL of 3% solution (isocaine) per site; maximum 9 mg/kg (0.3 mL/kg) per session. Infiltration: 0.5-1.0 mL; nerve block: 1.0-1.3 mL.

Terminal elimination half-life is 1.5–2 hours (mean 1.8 h), necessitating frequent dosing for sustained effect.
Terminal elimination half-life is 1.5–2.0 hours in healthy adults; prolonged to 3–5 hours in patients with hepatic impairment or severe renal disease.
Renal excretion of unchanged drug accounts for approximately 70% of elimination, with 30% undergoing hepatic metabolism and biliary/fecal elimination.
Primarily hepatic metabolism (approx. 90%) via amidase hydrolysis and aromatic hydroxylation; renal excretion of unchanged drug accounts for <5% of the dose; less than 1% excreted in feces.
