Overview • Local anesthetics produce a transient and reversible loss of sensation (analgesia) in a circumscribed region of the body without loss of consciousness. • Normally, the process is completely reversible. • Local anesthetics are generally classified as either esters or amides and are usually linked to: – a lipophilic aromatic group – to a hydrophilic, ionizable tertiary (sometimes secondary) amine. • Most are weak bases with pKa ( 8 – 9), and at physiologic pH they are primarily in the charged, cationic form. • The potency of local anesthetics is positively correlated with their lipid solubility, which may vary 16-fold, and negatively correlated with their molecular size. • These anesthetics are selected for use on the basis of: 1. the duration of drug action • Short: 20 min • Intermediate: 1—1.5 hrs • Long: 2—4 hrs 2. effectiveness at the administration site 3. potential for toxicity Mechanism of action Local anesthetics act by blocking sodium channels and the conduction of action potentials along sensory nerves. • Blockade is voltage dependent and time dependent. a. At rest, the voltage-dependent sodium (Na+) channels of sensory nerves are in the resting (closed) state. • Following the action potential the Na+ channel becomes active (open) and then converts to an inactive (closed) state that is insensitive to depolarization. • Following repolarization of the plasma membrane there is a slow reversion of channels from the inactive to the resting state, which can again be activated by depolarization. • During excitation the cationic charged form of local anesthetics interacts preferentially with the inactivated state of the Na+ channels on the inner aspect of the sodium channel to block sodium current and increase the threshold for excitation. -

Email: [email protected], *[email protected] Received March 20th, 2012; revised April 29th, 2012; accepted May 11th, 2012 ABSTRACT Continuous delivery of local anesthetics might be useful for management of localized and chronic pain. Controlled re- lease injectable anesthetics have been developed but they can deliver the drug for only few days and the release is not zero-order. A drug delivery system (DDS) consisting of a perforated reservoir for drug containment and release and its potential for management of chronic pain is described. Proof of principle is detailed for long-term zero order delivery of butamben. In this study, the DDS was a polyimide tube with a 0.20 mm hole and butamben release was evaluated in vitro. It is envisioned that the DDS could be implanted in proximity to a nerve, enervating the pain source, for long-term control of chronic pain.

Procaine Elisa Kit Instructions Product #103219 & 103216 Forensic Use Only
Neogen Corporation 944 Nandino Blvd., Lexington KY 40511 USA 800/477-8201 USA/Canada | 859/254-1221 Fax: 859/255-5532 | E-mail: [email protected] | Web: www.neogen.com/Toxicology PROCAINE ELISA KIT INSTRUCTIONS PRODUCT #103219 & 103216 FORENSIC USE ONLY INTENDED USE: For the determination of trace quantities of Procaine and/or other metabolites in human urine, blood, oral fluid. DESCRIPTION Neogen Corporation’s Procaine ELISA (Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay) test kit is a qualitative one-step kit designed for use as a screening device for the detection of drugs and/or their metabolites. The kit was designed for screening purposes and is intended for forensic use only. It is recommended that all suspect samples be confirmed by a quantitative method such as gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). ASSAY PRINCIPLES Neogen Corporation’s test kit operates on the basis of competition between the drug or its metabolite in the sample and the drug-enzyme conjugate for a limited number of antibody binding sites. First, the sample or control is added to the microplate. Next, the diluted drug-enzyme conjugate is added and the mixture is incubated at room temperature. During this incubation, the drug in the sample or the drug-enzyme conjugate binds to antibody immobilized in the microplate wells. After incubation, the plate is washed 3 times to remove any unbound sample or drug-enzyme conjugate. The presence of bound drug-enzyme conjugate is recognized by the addition of K-Blue® Substrate (TMB). After a 30 minute substrate incubation, the reaction is halted with the addition of Red Stop Solution. -

Safety Alert: Risks Associated with Ophthalmic Anesthetics
WRHA Pharmacy Program Health Sciences Centre MS-189 820 Sherbrook St. Winnipeg, Manitoba R3A 1R9 CANADA TEL: 204-787-7183 Fax: 204-787-3195 FAX: 204-787-3195 Safety Alert: Risks associated with Ophthalmic Anesthetics The self-administration of ophthalmic anesthetics by patients for the relief of eye pain should be avoided and they should not be given to patients to take home for pain relief. Vision threatening complications of topical anesthetic abuse are common. There is no indication for the use of ophthalmic anesthetics except for diagnostic and short term therapeutic purposes (the removal of a foreign body or ocular surgery) and therefore, these products should only be used under a physician’s supervision. Eye trauma resulting in a corneal abrasion (epithelial injury) is a common complaint in the Emergency department (1). A superficial corneal injury can cause intense pain causing a patient to seek medical help or immediate relief from available over the counter remedies. In Canada, only two topical ophthalmic anesthetic drugs are available commercially as single entities, proparacaine (proxymetacaine) and tetracaine (available in bottle and minim forms). Benoxinate (oxybuprocaine) is only available in combination with fluorescein (3). Lidocaine is also used in ophthalmic surgical procedures however, it is not available in the Canadian market as an ophthalmic preparation. Topical ophthalmic anesthetics function by blocking nerve conduction when applied to the cornea and conjunctiva. The ocular surface is innervated by the multiple branches of the trigeminal nerve. The cornea is supplied by the long and short ciliary nerves, the nasociliary nerve and the lacrimal nerve (4). Topical anesthetics reduce sodium permeability preventing generation and conduction of nerve impulses, increasing excitation threshold, and slowing the nerve impulse propagation. -

Being expressed in all cell types, they are involved in almost all physiological processes, including sense perception, neurotransmission, muscle contraction, secretion, immune response, cell proliferation, and differentiation. Due to the widespread tissue distribution of ion channels and their physiological functions, mutations in genes encoding ion channel subunits, or their interacting proteins, are responsible for inherited ion channelopathies. These diseases can range from common to very rare disorders and their severity can be mild, Edited by: disabling, or life-threatening. In spite of this, ion channels are the primary target of only Maria Cristina D’Adamo, University of Perugia, Italy about 5% of the marketed drugs suggesting their potential in drug discovery.

P-Aminobenzoic Acid Derivatives Benzocaine
P-aminobenzoic acid derivatives Benzocaine Mechanism of action oThe loca l anaesthe tics decrease the excitabilit y of nerve cells by decreasing the entry of Na+ ions during upstroke of action pottiltential. oThe local anaesthetics interact with a receptor situated within the voltage sensitiesensitive Na+ channel and raise the threshold of channel opening. oLocal anaesthetic blocks Na+ conductance by two possible modes of action, the tonic and the phasic inhibition. oTonic inhibition results from the binding of LA to nonactivated closed channel while phasic inhibition results from the binding of LA to open state or inactivate state of channels.
