Proparacaine Hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of proparacaine, a benzoic acid derivative with local anesthetic property. Proparacaine hydrochloride stabilizes the neuronal membrane by binding to and inhibiting voltage-gated sodium channels, thereby inhibiting sodium ion influx required for the initiation and conduction of impulses within the neuronal cell, and resulting in a loss of sensation. Its therapeutic use is listed as anesthetics. The directory classifies it as a commercial API with a synthetic source/manufacturing origin. Other names for this substance include Proparacaine HCl, Kainair, Ophthetic and Paracaine. Its PubChem CID is 517321.
