- Application Overview: Lidocaine Hydrochloride is an amide-type local anesthetic. It stabilizes nerve cells by blocking the ionic flow required for the generation and conduction of nerve impulses, thereby producing local anesthesia. Following systemic absorption or intravenous administration, it exhibits distinct biphasic effects—excitation followed by depression—on the central nervous system; analgesia and drowsiness may occur even without initial excitation at lower blood concentrations, leading to an elevated pain threshold. For individuals allergic to procaine or benzocaine, lidocaine hydrochloride offers a relatively safer alternative. Additionally, it functions as a Class IB antiarrhythmic agent.
