Benzonatate as a local anesthetic.
McGuire A, Ostertag-Hill CA, Aizik G, Li Y, Kohane DS. McGuire A, et al. PLoS One. 2023 Apr 12;18(4):e0284401. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0284401. eCollection 2023. PLoS One. 2023. PMID: 37043508 Free PMC article.
Based on structural similarities to known local anesthetics and recent findings of benzonatate exerting local anesthetic-like effects on voltage-gated sodium channels in vitro, we hypothesized that benzonatate will act as a local anesthetic to yield peripheral nerve …

Benzonatate inhibition of voltage-gated sodium currents.
Evans MS, Maglinger GB, Fletcher AM, Johnson SR. Evans MS, et al. Neuropharmacology. 2016 Feb;101:179-87. doi: 10.1016/j.neuropharm.2015.09.020. Epub 2015 Sep 16. Neuropharmacology. 2016. PMID: 26386152
Local anesthetics inhibit voltage-gated sodium channels, but there are no reports of whether benzonatate affects these channels. Our hypothesis is that benzonatate inhibits Nav1.7 voltage-gated sodium channels. ...We found that, like local anesthetics, benzonatat
