Topical anesthetic-induced methemoglobinemia and sulfhemoglobinemia in macaques: A comparison of benzocaine and lidocaine
Abstract
Benzocaine (BNZ) and lidocaine (LC) are commonly used topical (spray) anesthetics approved for use in humans. Benzocaine has structural similarities to methemoglobin (MHb)-forming drugs that are current candidates for cyanide prophylaxis, while LC has been reported to increase MHb in man. In this study, we compared MHb and sulfhemoglobin (SHb) production in three groups of Macaques (Chinese rhesus and Indian rhesus (Macaca mulatta) and...
