Investigation into the pharmacodynamics of ethanol as a nerve blocking agent

open access: yes, 2014
Ethanol is a known nerve-blocking agent, yet its clinical use is minimal. This is partly due to unclear dosage levels and not enough knowledge of its pharmacodynamics and overwhelming dominance of its psychomotor properties.
