Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Lidocaine, a local anesthetic, stabilizes neuronal membranes by inhibiting sodium ion channels, blocking initiation and conduction of nerve impulses. Epinephrine causes vasoconstriction via alpha-1 adrenergic receptor activation, reducing systemic absorption of lidocaine and prolonging local effect.
Lidocaine is an amide-type local anesthetic that stabilizes neuronal membranes by inhibiting sodium ion influx, thereby blocking nerve impulse initiation and conduction. Tetracaine is an ester-type local anesthetic that similarly inhibits sodium channels. The combination provides local dermal anesthesia.
Topical administration via laryngeal spray: 1-2 sprays (10-20 mg) to the larynx and pharynx, repeated as needed up to every 1-2 hours, not to exceed 8 sprays per 24 hours.
Apply 1 patch (70 mg lidocaine and 70 mg tetracaine) to intact skin over the intended venipuncture site or superficial dermatologic procedure site 20-30 minutes prior to procedure; maximum 1 patch per procedure.

Terminal elimination half-life is 1.5–2 hours (mean 1.8 h), necessitating frequent dosing for sustained effect.
Lidocaine: 1.5–2 hours; prilocaine: 1–1.5 hours. Terminal half-life similar for both. Note: prolonged in hepatic impairment or neonates.
Renal excretion of unchanged drug accounts for approximately 70% of elimination, with 30% undergoing hepatic metabolism and biliary/fecal elimination.
Renal excretion of lidocaine and prilocaine metabolites: lidocaine <10% unchanged, prilocaine negligible unchanged. Metabolites primarily renal.
