Proparacaine, Chlorbutol

Proparacaine Chlorbutol is a combination medication used for ocular (eye) anesthesia, which is the local numbing of the eye during certain procedures. Proparacaine, a topical anesthetic, works by blocking pain signals in the nerve endings, while Chlorbutol, a sodium channel blocker, provides additional anesthetic effect for a prolonged duration.
Proparacaine Chlorbutol is commonly used in diagnostic and therapeutic eye examinations, surgical procedures, and contact lens fitting. It helps create a comfortable environment for patients by alleviating any discomfort that may arise from these procedures. Proparacaine Chlorbutol is applied as eye drops, and the anesthetic effect occurs within a few minutes.
Please note that Proparacaine Chlorbutol should only be used as directed by a healthcare professional, and it’s crucial to follow their guidance regarding its application and dosing.
