CAS 137-58-6: Lidocaine
Description:Lidocaine, with the CAS number 137-58-6, is a local anesthetic and antiarrhythmic agent commonly used in medical settings. It is classified as an amide-type anesthetic, characterized by its ability to block nerve conduction by inhibiting sodium ion influx through voltage-gated sodium channels. Lidocaine is typically presented as a white crystalline powder, soluble in water and alcohol, and has a pKa value that allows it to exist in both ionized and non-ionized forms, which is crucial for its effectiveness in various pH environments. Its molecular formula is C14H22N2O, and it has a relatively low molecular weight. Lidocaine is often used in various formulations, including topical gels, injectable solutions, and patches, making it versatile for procedures ranging from dental work to minor surgical interventions. Additionally, it has a rapid onset of action and a relatively short duration of effect, which can be advantageous in clinical applications. However, care must be taken to monitor for potential side effects, including allergic reactions or systemic toxicity, especially with higher doses.
