Dermatologic Surgery, 1996
Dermatology is dependent upon the effects of local anesthetics for diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. A working knowledge of the drugs' actions and interactions is necessary for anyone aspiring to optimize the benefits derived from the use of local anesthetic agents.This article reviews nerve physiology, pharmacology, classification of local ...

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1985
Local anesthetics are remarkably useful agents that enhance patient comfort and improve patient compliance. Their use, however, requires an understanding of their action, proper dosages, potential risks, and treatment of reactions. We have presented the history, pharmacokinetics, action, risks of using, and ways in which agents are used to treat the ...

Best Practice & Research Clinical Anaesthesiology, 2018
Local anesthetics are used for performing various regional anesthesia techniques to provide intraoperative anesthesia and analgesia, as well as for the treatment of acute and chronic pain. Older medications such as lidocaine and bupivacaine as well as newer ones such as mepivacaine and ropivacaine are being used successfully for decades.

Dental Clinics of North America, 1994
Local anesthetics have been especially important in establishing pain control as a fundamental accomplishment in clinical dentistry. When used conscientiously, local anesthetics are effective and safe. It is helpful for clinical dentists to understand the workings of these adjuncts. The more we understand them, the better we will be able to use them.

Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine, 2004
Skeletal muscle toxicity is a rare and uncommon side effect of local anesthetic drugs. Intramuscular injections of these agents regularly result in reversible myonecrosis. The extent of muscle damage is dose dependent and worsens with serial or continuous administration. All local anesthetic agents that have been examined are myotoxic, whereby procaine

The American Journal of Surgery, 1957
Abstract 1. 1. An outline of the pharmacology of propoxycaine HCI, a new local anesthetic, is presented. 2. 2. Seventy-one cases in which propoxycaine HCI was used as a local anesthetic are reviewed. 3. 3. Salient features of the satisfactory performance of propoxycaine HCI include: (a) rapid onset, (b) effective in small dosage, (c ...

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1992
Emergency physicians often rely on the use of local anesthetic agents to relieve patient discomfort, and research continues in an effort to develop new agents with improved anesthetic qualities. Eventually, a nontoxic, rapidly acting agent may become available that could provide profound anesthesia of long duration when applied topically to intact skin

Local anesthetics are not only used as drugs to block the sodium channel to provide analgesia and antiarrhythmic action. The purpose of this review is to highlight the new indications and limitations of this class of drugs.Recent research has focused on the use of intravenous local anesthetics to improve bowel function after surgery or trauma, to ...

ABSORPTION OF LOCAL ANESTHETICS
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1958Factors that determine the rate of absorption of a local anesthetic were studied in canine and, when possible, in human subjects. The drugs used were tetracaine, cocaine, procaine, and benzocaine. Objective data was obtained in the form of actual concentrations of each drug in the blood, and the concentrations obtained by intravenous injection were ...
