Description and Uses
Benzocaine (ethyl p-aminobenzoate) is used topically by itself or in combination with menthol or
phenol in nonprescription dosage forms such as gels, creams, ointments, lotions, aerosols, and
lozenges to relieve pain or irritation caused by such conditions as sunburn, insect bites,
toothache, teething, cold sores or canker sores in or around the mouth, and fever blisters.
Benzocaine is a lipophilic local anesthetic agent with a short duration of action.
Like most amino ester-type local anesthetics, it is easily hydrolyzed by plasma cholinesterase.
Because of its low pKa, however, it is un-ionized under most physiological conditions and, therefore, can only bind
to the lipid side of the local anesthetic receptor. It also can easily cross membranes
into systemic circulation to cause systemic toxicities. Furthermore, being a PABA derivative, it
has similar allergenic properties to procaine and is contraindicated with sulfonamide antibacterial
agents.
Benzocaine is used as an anesthetic (Local and topical) that in products such as burn and sunburn remedies, hemorrhoidal creams, suppositories, creams for treatment of poison ivy, oral and gingival products, sore-throat sprays/lozenges, astringents, appetite suppressants, callus and wart remedies, athlete's-foot remedies, toothache- and denture-irritation products.
