A member asked:
How long does it take for septocaine's effects to wear off?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It Depends: This drug, often used by dental professionals, will have a "duration of action" that depends upon the size and condition of a patient, the amount of drug administered, its concentration, and the amount of painful "stimulation" the procedure might entail. Speak with your dentist!
