Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Oxybuprocaine is an ester-type local anesthetic that is used especially in ophthalmology and otolaryngology. Oxybuprocaine binds to sodium channels and reversibly stabilizes the neuronal membrane which decreases its permeability to sodium ions.
