Procaine is an anesthetic agent indicated for production of local or regional anesthesia, particularly for oral surgery. Procaine (like cocaine) has the advantage of constricting blood vessels which reduces bleeding, unlike other local anesthetics like lidocaine. Procaine is an ester anesthetic. It is metabolized in the plasma by the enzyme pseudocholinesterase through hydrolysis into para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA), which is then excreted by the kidneys into the urine. Procaine acts mainly by inhibiting sodium influx through voltage gated sodium channels in the neuronal cell membrane of peripheral nerves. When the influx of sodium is interrupted, an action potential cannot arise and signal conduction is thus inhibited. The receptor site is thought to be located at the cytoplasmic (inner) portion of the sodium channel. Procaine has also been shown to bind or antagonize the function of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors as well as nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and the serotonin receptor-ion channel complex.

Approved Use

Procaine is a local anesthetic. Procaine causes loss of feeling (numbness) of skin and mucous membranes. Procaine is used as an injection during surgery and other medical and dental procedures.

Sample Use Guides

Adults Local or Regional Anesthesia Local Infiltration Usually, 350–600 mg, administered as diluted solution (i.e., 140–240 mL of a 0.25% solution or 70–120 mL of a 0.5% solution) Peripheral Nerve Block Up to 1 g, administered undiluted (i.e., 100 mL of a 1% injection) or as diluted solution (i.e., 200 mL of a 0.5% solution). For local infiltration or peripheral nerve block, inject slowly and avoid rapid injection of large volumes; when feasible, administer in fractional (incremental) doses. For subarachnoid (spinal) block, use 2-mL single-dose ampuls containing procaine hydrochloride 10% only.c d Position patient properly prior to spinal anesthesia.
Route of Administration: Other
