(+)-Mepivacaine

• Product Name Alternative:

  Dexivacaine; (S)-Mepivacaine

• UNSPSC Description:

  (+)-Mepivacaine is a racemic isomer of Mepivacaine (HY-B0517), which has analgesic and vasoconstrictive activity. Mepivacaine is an amide type agent that temporarily causes local loss of consciousness. Mepivacaine binds to specific voltage-gated sodium channels on neuronal cell membranes, inhibiting sodium influx and membrane depolarization[1].
