Comparative Analgesic Properties of Bupivacaine, Etidocaine, and Lidocaine in Mice
Year: 1984
Type: article
Abstract: The analgesic properties of bupivacaine, etidocaine, and lidocaine were compared following intraperitoneal injection in mice. Two evaluations of analgesia were employed: the hot plate test and the stretch test. Doses of 75% of their corresponding CD50s produce analgesia greater than control and less than morphine sulfate 5 mg/kg. When differences in the pharmacokinetic properties of the agents are evaluated, the relative analgesic properties of the three local anesthetics appear nearly identical.
