'''Lidocaine''' ([[International Nonproprietary Name|INN]], [[British Approved Name|BAN]]) {{IPAc-en|ˈ|l|aɪ|d|ɵ|k|eɪ|n}}, '''xylocaine''', or '''lignocaine''' ([[Australian Approved Name|AAN]], former [[British Approved Name|BAN]]) {{IPAc-en|ˈ|l|ɪ|ɡ|n|ɵ|k|eɪ|n}} is a common [[local anesthetic]] and class 1b [[antiarrhythmic agent|antiarrhythmic]] drug. Lidocaine is used [[topical]]ly to relieve itching, burning and pain from skin inflammations, injected as a dental anesthetic or as a local anesthetic for minor surgery.

== Medical Uses ==
====Not Tested====
The efficacy profile of lidocaine as a local anesthetic is characterized by a rapid onset of action and intermediate duration of efficacy. Therefore, lidocaine is suitable for infiltration, block and surface anesthesia. Longer-acting substances such as [[bupivacaine]] are sometimes given preference for subdural and epidural anesthesias; lidocaine, on the other hand, has the advantage of a rapid onset of action. Epinephrine (aka [[adrenaline]]) vasoconstricts arteries reducing bleeding and also delays the resorption of lidocaine, almost doubling the duration of anaesthesia. For surface anesthesia several formulations are available that can be used e.g. for endoscopies, before intubations etc. Buffering the [[pH]] of lidocaine makes local freezing less painful.<ref name="pmid21154371">{{cite journal | author = Cepeda MS, Tzortzopoulou A, Thackrey M, Hudcova J, Arora Gandhi P, Schumann R | title = Adjusting the pH of lidocaine for reducing pain on injection | journal = Cochrane Database Syst Rev | volume =  | issue = 12 | pages = CD006581 | year = 2010 | pmid = 21154371 | doi = 10.1002/14651858.CD006581.pub2 }}</ref> Lidocaine drops can be used on the eyes for short ophthalmic procedures.


[[Topical]] lidocaine has been shown in some patients to relieve the pain of [[postherpetic neuralgia]] (a complication of [[Herpes zoster|shingles]]), though there is not enough study evidence to recommend it as a [[first-line treatment]].<ref name="pmid17443559">{{cite journal | author = Khaliq W, Alam S, Puri N | title = Topical lidocaine for the treatment of postherpetic neuralgia | journal = Cochrane Database Syst Rev | volume =  | issue = 2 | pages = CD004846 | year = 2007 | pmid = 17443559 | doi = 10.1002/14651858.CD004846.pub2 }}</ref> [[Intravenous therapy|IV]] lidocaine also has uses as a temporary fix for [[tinnitus]].

Lidocaine is also the most important [[Antiarrhythmic agent#Class I agents|class 1B antiarrhythmic drug]]: it is used intravenously for the treatment of [[ventricular arrhythmia]]s (for [[acute myocardial infarction]], [[digoxin]] poisoning, [[cardioversion]] or [[cardiac catheterization]]) if [[amiodarone]] is not available or contraindicated. Lidocaine should be given for this indication after defibrillation, CPR, and vasopressors have been initiated.

[[Adverse drug reaction]]s (ADRs) are rare when lidocaine is used as a local anesthetic and is administered correctly.

Traditionally physicians have always advocated against using epinephrine with local anesthesia in end arterial structures (fingers, toes, nose, and penis) because vasospasm combined with a lack of collateral circulation in these areas may result in tissue necrosis. No clinical evidence has implicated lidocaine in particular as a cause of this adverse reaction.<ref>{{cite journal | author = Chowdhry S, Seidenstricker L, Cooney DS, Hazani R, Wilhelmi BJ | title = Do not use epinephrine in digital blocks: myth or truth?

==Overdosage==
===TPN/TNA===


Overdosage with lidocaine can be a result of excessive administration via topical or parenteral routes, accidental oral ingestion of topical preparations by children who are more susceptible to overdose, accidental intravenous (rather than subcutaneous, intrathecal or paracervical) injection or prolonged use of subcutaneous infiltration anesthesia during cosmetic surgical procedures. These occurrences have often led to severe toxicity or death in both children and adults. Lidocaine and its two major metabolites may be quantified in blood, plasma or serum to confirm the diagnosis in potential poisoning victims or to assist in the forensic investigation in a case of fatal overdosage. It is important in the interpretation of analytical results to recognize that lidocaine is often routinely administered intravenously as an antiarrhythmic agent in critical cardiac care situations.<ref name="isbn0-9626523-7-7">{{cite book | author = Baselt R | title = Disposition of Toxic Drugs and Chemicals in Man | edition = 8th | publisher = Biomedical Publications | location = Foster City, CA | year = 2008 | pages = 840–4 | isbn = 0-9626523-7-7 }}</ref> Treatment with intravenous lipid emulsions (used for parental feeding) to reverse the effects of local anaesthetic toxicity is becoming more commonplace.<ref name="pmid19143686">{{cite journal | author = Picard J, Ward SC, Zumpe R, Meek T, Barlow J, Harrop-Griffiths W | title = Guidelines and the adoption of 'lipid rescue' therapy for local anaesthetic toxicity | journal = Anaesthesia | volume = 64 | issue = 2 | pages = 122–5 | date = February 2009 | pmid = 19143686 | doi = 10.1111/j.1365-2044.2008.05816.x }}</ref>

|overdose====Acute Overdose===


Lidocaine may be prepared in two steps by the reaction of [[2,6-xylidine]] with [[chloroacetyl chloride]], followed by the reaction with [[diethylamine]]:<ref>{{cite journal |doi=10.1021/ed076p1557 |title=The Preparation of Lidocaine | year = 1999 | author = Reilly TJ | journal = Journal of Chemical Education | volume = 76 | issue = 11 | pages = 1557}}</ref><ref>{{ cite patent | country = US | number = 2441498 | status = patent | title = Alkyl glycinanilides | gdate = 1948-05-11 | inventor = Bengt JL, Niels, ML | assign1 = Astra Apotekarnes Kem FAB}}</ref>
====Signs and Symptoms====


== Pharmacokinetics ==
(Description)


The onset of action of lidocaine is about 45 to 90 seconds and its duration is 10 to 20 minutes. It is approximately 95% metabolized (dealkylated) in the [[liver]] mainly by [[CYP3A4]] to the pharmacologically-active [[Metabolomics#Metabolites|metabolites]] [[monoethylglycinexylidide]] (MEGX) and then subsequently to the inactive [[glycine xylidide]]. MEGX has a longer half life than lidocaine but also is a less potent sodium channel blocker.<ref name="isbn0-07-143763-0">{{cite book | editor = Flomenbaum N, Goldfrank LR, Hoffman RL, Howland MD, Lewin NA, Nelson LH | title = Goldfrank's Toxicologic Emergencies | edition = 8th | publisher = McGraw-Hill | location = New York | year = 2006 | pages = 963–4 | author = Lewin NA, Nelson LH | chapter = Chapter 61: Antidysrhythmics | isbn = 0-07-143763-0 }}</ref> The [[volume of distribution]] is 1.1-2.1 L/kg but congestive heart failure can decrease it. 60-80% circulates bound to the protein alpha<sub>1</sub> acid glycoprotein. The oral bioavailability is 35% and the topical bioavailability is 3%.
====Management====


The elimination [[half-life]] of lidocaine is biphasic and approximately 90–120 minutes in most patients. This may be prolonged in patients with [[liver failure|hepatic impairment]] (average 343 minutes) or [[heart failure|congestive heart failure]] (average 136 minutes).<ref name="pmid4694036">{{cite journal | author = Thomson PD, Melmon KL, Richardson JA, Cohn K, Steinbrunn W, Cudihee R, Rowland M | title = Lidocaine pharmacokinetics in advanced heart failure, liver disease, and renal failure in humans | journal = Ann.

(Description)


== Pharmacodynamics ==
===Chronic Overdose===


=== Anaesthesia ===
====Signs and Symptoms====
Lidocaine alters signal conduction in [[neuron]]s by blocking the fast [[sodium channel|voltage gated sodium (Na<sup>+</sup>) channels]] in the neuronal cell membrane that are responsible for signal propagation.<ref name="novartis">{{cite journal |doi=10.1002/0470846682.ch14 |chapter=Molecular Mechanisms of Gating and Drug Block of Sodium Channels |title=Sodium Channels and Neuronal Hyperexcitability |series=Novartis Foundation Symposia |year=2001 |last1=Carterall |first1=William A. |isbn=9780470846681 |volume=241 |pages=206}}</ref> With sufficient blockage the membrane of the postsynaptic neuron will not depolarize and will thus fail to transmit an [[action potential]]. This creates the [[anaesthetic]] effect by not merely preventing pain signals from propagating to the brain but by stopping them before they begin. Careful titration allows for a high degree of selectivity in the blockage of sensory neurons, whereas higher concentrations will also affect other modalities of neuron signaling.


=== Antiarrhythmic ===
(Description)
The same principle applies for this drug's actions in the heart. Blocking sodium channels in the conduction system as well as the muscle cells of the heart raises the depolarization threshold making the heart less likely to initiate or conduct early action potentials that may cause an arrhythmia.<ref>{{cite journal | author = Sheu SS, Lederer WJ | title = Lidocaine's negative inotropic and antiarrhythmic actions.

== History ==
====Management====
Lidocaine, the first [[amino]] [[amide]]–type local anesthetic, was first synthesized under the name ''xylocaine'' by Swedish chemist [[Nils Löfgren]] in 1943.<ref name="lofgren_1948">{{cite book | author = Löfgren N|title=Studies on local anesthetics: Xylocaine: a new synthetic drug |type=Inaugural dissertation |publisher=Ivar Heggstroms |location=Stockholm, Sweden |year=1948 |oclc=646046738}}{{page needed|date=May 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal | author = Löfgren N, Lundqvist B | year = 1946 | title = Studies on local anaesthetics II | journal = Svensk Kemisk Tidskrift | volume = 58 | pages = 206–17}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal | author = Wildsmith JAW |year=2011 | title = Lidocaine: A more complex story than 'simple' chemistry suggests | journal = The Proceedings of the History of Anaesthesia Society | url = http://www.histansoc.org.uk/uploads/9/5/5/2/9552670/vol_43.pdf | volume = 43 | pages = 9–16 }}</ref> His colleague Bengt Lundqvist performed the first injection anesthesia experiments on himself.<ref name="lofgren_1948"/> It was first marketed in 1949.
