Novocaine is a brand of Procaine - which Hales lists as an L3. It also
states - "low potential for systemic toxicity and short duration of action".
Effects would be dose and location of injection related. Hales states "most
other local anesthetics penetrate milk only poorly".

I have searched the Archives and get the gist that Novocaine is fine while
bf, but is there a specific source of info re its safety? Someone just asked
me about it; she is bf a 4 week-old and needs Novocaine (for dental work).
Thanks!
