Pramocaine
Pramocaine (Pramoxine) is a topical surface anesthetic and antipruritic agent. Pramocaine reversibly inhibits voltage-gated sodium channel, reduces transmembrane permeability of sodium ions, stabilizes cell membranes, prevents depolarization, blocks action potential conduction, and inhibits peripheral slow C-fiber pathways associated with pain, pruritus and thermoception. Pramocaine can be used in research related to chronic pruritus, renal pruritus, atopic dermatitis, xerotic pruritus, uremic pruritus, and cutaneous hyperalgesia/pain.

Result:Elicited dose-dependent spinal block of nociception, proprioception, and motor function.
Determined ED50 values of 15.47 μmol/kg for nociceptive block, 16.46 μmol/kg for proprioceptive block, and 17.77 μmol/kg for motor block.
Reported mean ED75 and ED25 values across all three block types as 20.83 μmol/kg and 13.17 μmol/kg, respectively.
Produced 100% maximum possible effect (%MPE) for all three block types at 30.96 μmol/kg, with complete blockade times of 36.9 minutes for nociception, 17.8 minutes for proprioception, and 15.4 minutes for motor function.
Recorded full recovery times of 94.2 minutes for nociception, 65.6 minutes for proprioception, and 41.3 minutes for motor function at 30.96 μmol/kg.
Measured AUC values of 6425 (%MPE × min) for nociception, 3709 (%MPE × min) for proprioception, and 2362 (%MPE × min) for motor function at 30.96 μmol/kg.
Showed no significant difference in spinal block duration compared to bupivacaine at equipotent doses (ED75, ED50, ED25).
