Vasoconstriction Potency Induced by Aminoamide Local Anesthetics Correlates with Lipid Solubility

Aminoamide local anesthetics induce vasoconstriction in vivo and in vitro. The goals of this in vitro study were to investigate the potency of local anesthetic-induced vasoconstriction and to identify the physicochemical property (octanol/buffer partition coefficient, pKa, molecular weight, or poten...
