Benzocaine (Veterinary Grade)

Product Overview

Benzocaine is a widely used local anesthetic of the ester class for veterinary applications. It provides rapid onset and short duration anesthesia for topical procedures, and is the anesthetic of choice for fish sedation and anesthesia in aquaculture and research settings.

Benzocaine reversibly blocks sodium ion channels in neuronal cell membranes, preventing the initiation and conduction of nerve impulses. Its rapid onset and well-characterized safety profile make it ideal for a wide range of veterinary procedures from fish handling to minor surgical interventions.
