Reversible skeletal muscle damage after administration of local anesthetics with and without epinephrine

P W Benoit. J Oral Surg. 1978 Mar.

Abstract

Local anesthetic preparations with and without epinephrine, which are in common clinical use, produced reversible skeletal muscle damage in the rat after a single local administration. In addition, epinephrine alone, in concentrations of more than 1:200,000, caused similar but less extensive damage.
