Anesthesia for dental surgery, what is "M and S"?

I will be getting my Wisdom Teeth out in a few months. If I'm not mistaken, one of the options they gave for anesthesia is called "M and S" through an IV. What is it? What does it do?

Maybe two different drugs beginning with M and S. Don't have it if they won't explain to you properly what it is and what it does.





Midazolam is one IV drug they use (begins with M of course). It's a cheap (and IMHO nasty) alternative given by the British NHS instead of a general anasthetic. They also give it to death row inmates to calm them down.

Also used as a date rape drug like Rohypnol (a similar drug).

If you are having a number of wisdom teeth out or it's going to be prolonged and fiddly I should just ask to be knocked out with gas the old fashioned way. This used to be standard for wisdom teeth extraction.





I had it for ordinary extractions as a minor and it's nothing to be scared of. There's this sickly sweet pong, then a white blur and everything seems to be all over practically as soon as it starts. Can be expensive if you have to pay for it though.
Reply:ASK the doctor. I have never heard of this, it could be his/her code for the medicine. I don't know.
