Bumecaine (Pyromecaine) is a local anesthetic and anti-arrhythmic drug. It is indicated as an agent for superficial anesthesia during medical and diagnostic procedures in dentistry, ophthalmology, otorhinolaryngology, surgery, bronchology, gastroenterology, urology. The experiments on the isolated neurons in the rat spinal ganglions have shown that interaction of pyromecaine with inactivated Na+ channels makes a considerable contribution to the blocking effect of anesthesia. Oral administration of pyromecaine pills considerably depresses platelet aggregation and even causes platelet disaggregation. Possible side effects are: general weakness, nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, fainting, a drop in blood pressure. Quinidine increases the risk of side effects.
