CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
MECHANISM OF ACTION
Lidocaine stabilizes the neuronal membrane by inhibiting the ionic
fluxes required for the initiation and
conduction of impulses, thereby effecting local anesthetic action.
ONSET OF ANESTHESIA
Lidocaine Ointment USP, 5% effects local, topical anesthesia. The
onset of action is 3-5 minutes. It is
ineffective when applied to intact skin.
HEMODYNAMICS
Excessive blood levels may cause changes in cardiac output, total
peripheral resistance, and mean
arterial pressure. These changes may be attributable to a direct
depressant effect of the local anesthetic
agent on various components of the cardiovascular system.
PHARMACOKINETICS AND METABOLISM
Lidocaine may be absorbed following topical administration to mucous
membranes, its rate and extent of
absorption depending upon the specific site of application, duration
of exposure, concentration, and
total dosage. In general, the rate of absorption of local anesthetic
agents following topical application
occurs most rapidly after intratracheal administration. Lidocaine is
also well-absorbed from the
gastrointestinal tract, but little intact drug appears in the
circulation because of biotransformation in the
liver.
Lidocaine is metabolized rapidly by the liver, and metabolites and
unchanged drug are excreted by the
kidneys. Biotransforma
