LA: Reversibly block impulse conduction along nerve axons & other excitable membrane that utilize Na+ channels for Action Potential generation.
Uses: block pain sensation (nociception) from specific area of ! body.
Cocaine was ! 1st LA isolated from Coca plant as an ophthalmic anesthetic; Its chronic use: psychological dependence (addiction).
2
Followed by procaine & then Lidocaine (Lid) which is ! most
widely used LA.
What characteristics of LAs make them ideal agents for anesthesia? As ropivacaine
1- Rapid/ faster onset, 2- Long Duration of Action,3- Reversible & selective blockade of
sensory nerves without motor blockade, 4- Minimal local tissue irritation & no
systemic toxicities (cardiac & CNS).3
Weak base & available as salts to increase solubility & stability.
Consist of lipophilic gp (aromatic ring): memb penetration ++ intermediate chain via an ester or amide to ionizable gp: for channel blockade .

• Absorption of injected LA, esp systemic: depends on:
1- dosage, 2- site of inj, (VASCULARITY): IV > tracheal >
intercostals > paracervical > epidural > brachial plexus > sciatic > SC
3- drug-tissue binding, 4- local blood flow, 5- use of Vasoconstrictors (epinephrine/ phenylephrine)
&6- ! physiochemical property of ! drug.
Absorption in highly vascular area (trachea, intercostal) is > poor perfused tissues (dermis & SC fat).
8
Epinephrine/ VC:Slow ! removal & reduce systemic absorption of
LA from inj site by decreasing blood flow (upto 30%) &
cause higher local tissue conc. of ! drug & prolong conduction blockade.
+ reduce CNS & systemic tox.Used with short/ intermediate duration of
action: (procaine, Lid & mepivacaine).
VCs are < effective in prolonging anesthetic action of more lipid-soluble, long-acting drugs (bupivacaine & ropivacaine) which are highly tissue-bound. 9
Distribution
! Amide LAs are widely distributed after IV bolus inj.
Initial rapid phase into highly perfused organs (brain, kidney, liver & heart),
then a slower phase to moderately perfused organs (Muscle, GIT).
10
Acidification of urine: ionization & excretion of LA
Ester-type hydrolyzed rapidly in ! blood (by pseudo-choline-sterase) to inactive metabolites; short plasma t1/2 (< 1 min).
! amide linkage is hydrolyzed by liver cytochrome P450 with different rates order (prilocaine (fastest) > Lid > bupivacaine (slowest).
All ester & amide LAs converted to more water-soluble metabolites & excreted in urine.
11
Toxicity from amide-type LA occur in hepatic D. Ex: elimination t1/2 of Lid increase from 1.6 hr in normal pat to > 6 hr in liver disease pat.
amide LA also affected by enz inhibitors.
Reduced hepatic bld flow: decrease their elimination. 12
Block ! Initiation & propagation of action potential (AP) by preventing voltage-gated Na+ channels.
Activity is PH-dependent, increased at alkaline PH. Its penetration to Na+ channels is very poor at acid PH. Inflamed tissues (acidic): resistance to LA.
Elevated extracellular Ca2+ antagonizes ! action of LA by Ca2+ which increase ! surface potential on ! membrane.
13
Smaller & more lipophilic LA: ! Faster rate of interaction with Na+ channels.
Potency is +vely correlated with lipid solubility.
Lid, procaine, & mepivacaine are > water-soluble than tetracaine, bupivacaine, & ropivacaine that are > potent & have longer DOA.
Long acting (bupivacaine ) also bind more extensively to plasma proteins & can be displaced by other protein-bound drugs.
14
Structure- Activity Characteristics of LA:
Other actions of LA on nerves:1- Loss of sensation from site of painful
stimuli2- Motor paralysis during surgery;
desirable; but also limit ! ability of patient to cooperate in obstetric delivery.
Disadvantages In Spinal anesthesia, motor paralysis:
impair respiratory activity & AN blockade: hypotension & urinary
retention (catheterization).15
1- Effect on fiber diameter: LA block conduction in small-diameter
nerve fibers > readily than in large fibers. (bec electrical impulse is shorter)
Pain sensation is blocked > readily than other sensory modalities.
Motor axons (large diameter), are relatively resistance.
LAs block conduction in ! following order:
small myelinated (pain impulses), non- myelinated (C-fibers), large myelinated axons.
16
2- Effect on firing frequency
Blockade by LA is > at higher frequencies of depolarization.
Sensory (esp pain) fibers have High firing rate & long AP duration. while
Motor fibers fire at a slower rate & have shorter AP duration.

To increase onset of LA: + Na-bicarbonate to LA sol; LA become > lipid soluble.
Repeated inj of LA: tachyphylaxis (extracellular acidosis)
Pregnancy increase LA tox. Topical LA: eye, ENT & for cosmetic surgery.
Properties: 1- rapid penetration across ! skin/ mucosa & 2- low tendency to diffuse away from ! site of
application. Cocaine bec of excellent penetration & local
VC used for (ENT) procedures. Has irritating effect so NOT used in ophthalmic procedure.
Other topical: Lid + VC, tetracaine, dibucaine, benzocaine, & dyclonine.
25
OTHER USES: LAs have membrane-stabilizing effects;
Both IV Lid & po (mexiletine, tocainide) used to Tr patients with neuropathic pain syndrome: (uncontrolled, rapid, sensory fiber firing).
Systemic LA: as adjuncts to TCA (amitriptyline) & anticonvulsant (carbamazepine).
Systemic toxicity: CNS & CV system.
26
A- CNS:1- All LAs at low conc: sleepiness, light
headiness, visual & auditory disturbances & restlessness.
Early symp: tongue numbness + metallic taste.
Rare, but High plasma conc.: nystagmus & muscular twitching, then tonic-clonic convulsions. Followed by generalized CNS depression (apnea).
27
Convulsions: excessive LA level in ! bld. If large dose of LA is required: Rx pre-medication with BDZs prophylaxis.
2- For cocaine: widely abuse drug, severe CV toxicity; HTN, arrhythmia, & myocardial Failure.
B- Neurotox: direct neuronal tox. With excessive high conc. Chloroprocaine & Lid are > neurotoxic than others in spinal anes.,: transient irritation (neuropathic symptoms).
28
C- CVS: direct effect on ! hrt & smooth muscle & indirect effect on ! ANS.
Depress strength of cardiac contraction, ECG changes & cause arteriolar dilatation;; hypotension.
Bupivacaine is > cardiotoxic than other long-acting LA.
Ropivaciane: CV & CNS tox, but < than Bupivacaine.
Cocaine blocks Norepinephrine uptake: VC & HTN + cardiac arrhythmia & ischemia.
29
D- Hematologic effects:Large dose of prilocaine: accumulation of
Oxidizing Agent (o- toluidine) that convert Hg to metHg.;; cyanosis & chocolate-colored. Not recommended in infants. (Benzocaine can also cause metHg).
Rx: IV methylene blue/ ascorbic acid.
E- Allergic rxs: (Not with amides)Ester-type LAs are metabolized to P-ABA
derivatives; allergic rxs.30
