Butamben is a local anesthetic in the form of n-butyl-p-aminobenzoate. Its structure corresponds to the standard molecule of a hydrophilic and hydrophobic domain separated by an intermediate ester found in most of the local anesthetics. Due to its very low water solubility, butamben was considered of low usability as it is only suitable to be used as a topical anesthesia. This belief changed with the introduction of epidural suspensions of butamben. All butamben-containing products were removed from the market under the belief that it is unsafe or ineffective.

4.2 Drug Indication

Butamben was indicated for the treatment of chronic pain due to its long-duration effect. It is also indicated as a surface anesthetic for skin a mucous membrane and for the relief of pain and pruritus associated with anorectal disorders.


5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Butamben has been shown to selectively inhibit dorsal root pain signal transmission for periods of months when administered as epidural suspensions. The effect of butamben is not related to any significant loss of motor function which indicates that it targets specifically the pain-sensing C fibers of the dorsal root. When administered topically, butamben produced anesthesia by accumulating in the nerve cell membrane causing it to expand and lose its ability to depolarize and blocking the impulse transmission.


5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Anesthetics, Local

Drugs that block nerve conduction when applied locally to nerve tissue in appropriate concentrations. They act on any part of the nervous system and on every type of nerve fiber. In contact with a nerve trunk, these anesthetics can cause both sensory and motor paralysis in the innervated area. Their action is completely reversible. (From Gilman AG, et. al., Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, 8th ed) Nearly all local anesthetics act by reducing the tendency of voltage-dependent sodium channels to activate. (See all compounds classified as Anesthetics, Local.)


5.3 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

When butamben is administered epidurally in a suspension form, the physical characteristics of butamben allow a very slow release. When administered topically, butamben is also reported to have a very low systemic absorption which allows for a longer duration of action.


Route of Elimination

The metabolites found in plasma after cholinesterase processing are disposed of in the urine.


Volume of Distribution

This pharmacokinetic property has not been determined.


Clearance

Clearance is flow-limited and it highly depends on the state of protein-bound form.


5.4 Metabolism/Metabolites

The metabolic pathway of butamben follows the same pattern of other local anesthetics and it is driven mainly by the hydrolysis via cholinesterase for the formation of inert metabolites.


5.5 Biological Half-Life

The effective half-life of unencapsulated butamben is registered to be of 90 minutes. Some efforts were made to prepare D, L-lactic acid capsules which increased the half-life of butamben to even 400 hours.


5.6 Mechanism of Action

Butamben acts by inhibiting the voltage-gated calcium channels in dorsal root ganglion neurons. The modification in this channels is thought to cause a disturbance of the channel kinetics acceleration. It is reported as well that butamben is an inhibitor of the sodium channels and a delayed rectifier of potassium currents. All the effects of butamben are performed in the root ganglion neurons which suggests that the related anesthetic effect may be caused by the reduced electrical excitability.


...ACTION IS TO INTERFERE WITH INITIATION & TRANSMISSION OF NERVE IMPULSE. PRESENT THEORY HOLDS THAT LOCAL ANESTHETICS PREVENT DEPOLARIZATION OF NERVE MEMBRANE &, HENCE, PROPAGATION OF IMPULSE. ...THOUGHT TO BE DUE TO INTERFERENCE WITH MUTUAL EXCHANGE OF SODIUM & POTASSIUM IONS ACROSS MEMBRANE. /LOCAL ANESTHETICS/
