About Proparacaine (Proxymetacaine )
Proxymetacaine or proparacaine is a topical anesthetic drug of the aminoester group.
Mechanism of Action of Proparacaine (Proxymetacaine )
The exact mechanism whereby proparacaine and other local anesthetics influence the permeability of the cell membrane is unknown; however, several studies indicate that local anesthetics may limit sodium ion permeability through the lipid layer of the nerve cell membrane. Proparacaine may alter epithelial sodium channels through interaction with channel protein residues. This limitation prevents the fundamental change necessary for the generation of the action potential.
