Description
Articaine hydrochloride is a thiophene-containing local anesthetic pharmacologically similar to mepivacaine. Most local anesthetics act by abolishing voltage-gated sodium channel currents indiscriminately in all populations of neurons. Articaine is an amide local anesthetic most commonly used in dentistry. It possesses a unique ester side chain that is metabolized rapidly by circulating esterases. Articaine is reported to modify cardiac action potentials and ion currents only at concentrations higher than the therapeutic range needed to inhibit voltage-gated sodium channels.
