Flexyx drugs: cinchocaine hydrochloride

cinchocaine hydrochloride - General Information:

A local anesthetic of the amide type now generally used for surface anesthesia. It is one of the most potent and toxic of the long-acting local anesthetics and its parenteral use is restricted to spinal anesthesia. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p1006)

Pharmacology:

cinchocaine hydrochloride is an amide-type local anesthetic, similar to lidocaine.

Additional information about cinchocaine hydrochloride

cinchocaine hydrochloride Indication: For production of local or regional anesthesia by infiltration techniques such as percutaneous injection and intravenous regional anesthesia by peripheral nerve block techniques such as brachial plexus and intercostal and by central neural techniques such as lumbar and caudal epidural blocks.
Mechanism Of Action: Local anesthetics block both the initiation and conduction of nerve impulses by decreasing the neuronal membrane's permeability to sodium ions. This reversibly stabilizes the membrane and inhibits depolarization, resulting in the failure of a propagated action potential and subsequent conduction blockade.
Drug Interactions: Methotrexate The NSAID increases the effect and toxicity of methotrexate
Lithium The NSAID increases serum levels of lithium
Acenocoumarol The NSAID increases the anticoagulant effect
