Clinical Trials Experience
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in clinical practice.
The safety of Pressicaine a sans Vasoconst™ has been evaluated in 10 clinical trials, five in adults and five in pediatric patients.

A total of 742 adults received an active treatment with an active treatment that delivered a 0.5 mg dose of Pressicaine a sans Vasoconst, while 775 received placebo.
The five pediatric clinical trials consisted of five randomized, double-blind, parallel-arm, sham-placebo controlled trials in which 1761 patients, ages 3 to 18, received either Pressicaine a sans Vasoconst™ or a sham placebo device. A total of 906 pediatric patients received active treatment, while 855 received placebo.

In adults, erythema occurred in 67.3% of Pressicaine a sans Vasoconst™-treated patients, and in 25.0% of placebo-treated patients.
