A local anesthetic (LA) is a medication that causes reversible absence of pain sensation. When it is used on specific nerve pathways (local anesthetic nerve block), paralysis (loss of muscle power) also can be achieved. * Clinical LAs belong to one of two classes: aminoamide and aminoester local anesthetics. Synthetic LAs are structurally related to cocaine. They differ from cocaine mainly in that they have a very low abuse potential and do not produce hypertension or (with few exceptions) vasoconstriction. * They are used in various techniques of local anesthesia such as:* Topical anesthesia (surface) * Topical administration of cream, gel, ointment, liquid, or spray of anaesthetic dissolved in DMSO or other solvents/carriers for deeper absorption * Infiltration * Brachial plexus block * Epidural (extradural) block * Spinal anesthesia (subarachnoid block) * Iontophoresis |
