I'm an anesthesiologist.  The drug you list is not familiar to me.  The closest I can think of is remifentanil (a narcotic). or romazicon (reversal agent)\n\nWe use different drugs for different things. \n\n For general anesthesia, we use a drug to get people off to sleep (induction) - common induction agents are propofol, etomidate, pentothal, ketamine.  To keep people asleep, we usually use inhalation anesthetics, such as isoflurane, desflurane, sevoflurane, possibly with nitrous oxide.  We may also use a paralyzing agent such as succinylcholine, rocuronium, vecuronium, atracurium, cisatracurium or pancuronium.  For pain relief, we typically use a narcotic such as fentanyl, morphine, hydrocodone, alfentanil, or sufentanil.  Many patients also get midazolam, which is a sedative and amnestic.\n\nFor neuraxial (spinal/epidural) regional (nerve blocks) or local anesthetics, we use drugs called "local anesthetics".  Common local anesthetics are lidocaine, procaine, bupivicaine, tetracaine, chloroprocaine  (pretty much anything that ends in "caine" is a local anesthetic)\n\nPatients may also get drugs to prevent nausea, reverse the paralyzing agents, raise or lower blood pressure or heart rate, or treat anything else that might come up.\n\nHope that helps.\n\n(Many of the drugs listed by "The Nurse" are not anesthetic drugs, but may be given in the perioperative period; some of the anesthetic drugs that are listed are no longer used)

Yes, men and women can both be allergic.  It may be the spermicide or some other, non-active ingredient.\n\nI'm allergic to spermacide and it burns terribly!!

Aspirin doesn't act on nerve endings.  Aspirin is an inhibitor of an enzyme called cyclooxygenase.  The enzyme cyclooxygenase is important in the lipid signalling system of prostaglandins and leukotrienes that are part of the inflammatory cascade.  It is this signalling system that makes you feel pain.

are u allergic to any medication? are you taking any meds? if not, you may try motrin, which is ibuprofen.  it is available in every pharmacy. it comes in 200mg. you can take 1 to 2 tablets every 4 to 6 hours as needed for pain. it can help with the pain and inflammation. but make sure that you take it with food or milk. b/c it can be strong to your stomach.  \nif ibuprofen alone doesn't do any good. it is ok to take it with tylenol.  if it is still not working, call up your dentist. there might be an after hour help line. \n  \nand you have to go check with your dentist on monday!

That is a difficult question, what with all the recalls and warning about arthritis meds. I was on two that were pulled from the market and it was scary. I use over the counter naproxen. It is the ingredient in Advil but you can buy the store brand much cheaper. I take 2 of them and they work better then the prescription I was on. Some people have stomach upset with it so if you have ulcers don't use it.

i am guessing that benedryl, an antihistamine would be given, or adrenaline. it depends on the reaction.

Yes, in fact, they can be deadly.  Taking a precribed pain killer over a long period of time puts you at risk for a prescription dependency if you aren't already now and the pain meds themselves become tolerated by your own system until you will no longer be able to rid the pain without increasing the dosage or changing the medication to a stronger rx.  If you take the medication to treat pain as it comes then you may also find yourself masking a totally different medical condition that requires attention by a professional and not a "do it yourself prescribed treatment".  The effects on your body itself from the daily use of almost any medication can have negative reactions to your organs and even the make-up of your immune system.  And, that "everything is perfect" and the "pain is all gone" feeling that comes with the relief of chronic pain...when a pain medication becomes tolerant in your system there is no relief in the end.  I took some of the strongest pain medications for years, all prescribed legitimately and the day I treated a pain I shouldn't have it almost killed me.
