Notes: Oxybuprocaine is an anesthetic.{69833} Intrathecal administration of oxybuprocaine reduces motor function, decreases righting behaviors in the placement test, and increases latency to paw withdrawal in the hot plate test in rats (ED50s = 0.43, 0.5, and 0.31 µmol/kg, respectively). Topical application of oxybuprocaine (0.4% w/v) reduces corneal sensitivity in the corneal touch test in dogs.{66835} Formulations containing oxybuprocaine have been used to induce anesthesia prior to ocular surgery.
