They gave me a micture of lignocaine and adrenaline. I asked the doctor if it ok in pregnancy. His answer wasn't quiet assuring. He looked it up in BNF where it was said it was contraindicated above 20ml. I can't remember the exact name of the drug. after all he gave me the minimum dose (5ml). Is this correct or can it cause any complication to my baby. Please let me know if you know it. Thanks Kinga Hi,

It is produced by AstraZenica. Unfortunately, I have absolutely no knowledge of where or if this is available in Malaysia. Sorry that I cannot be of more help. Dear Charles,
