Uses authorised in Canada
Use whenever gingival retraction is advisable in dental practice, as preceding impression taking with any elastic impression material; or prior to placement of caps, crowns, bridges, etc. Racord is a cotton cord with a solution of racemic epinephrine hydrochloride and dried by a technique which retains the activity of the medication. Normal tissue moisture reactivates the medication, which promptly retracts gingival tissue in a manner that causes no tissue damage, yet fully exposes the gingival margin.
A use authorised in Canada is not an authorised health claim in the European Union. See the health claims register.

Contains Sodium Bisulfate, a sulfite that may cause allergic type reactions including anaphylactic symptoms and life-threatening or less severe asthmatic episodes in certain susceptible people. The overall prevalence of sulfite sensitivity in the general population is unknown and probably low. Sulfite sensitivity is seen more frequently in asthmatic than in non-asthmatic people.
