Descripción

General description

Mexiletine is a class I B antiarrhythmic and an analog of lidocaine.[1] It has shelf life of 10-12 hours and is metabolized in liver and eliminated post reduction, oxidation deamination or conjugation.[2]

Application

Mexiletine hydrochloride has been used as a sodium channel blocker:

• expressed in chinese hamster ovary cells[3]
• in human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells for whole cell patch-clamp studies[4]
• electrophysiology studies in HEK cells expressing Nav1.7 protein[5]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Mexiletine is a potent sodium channel blocker. It is a cardiac antiarrhythmic and is used as an adjuvant in headache and neuropathic pain[1] Mexiletine is used for treating myotonia in sodium channelopathies[6] and reduces the cardiac action potential depolarization but shows no impact on atrial refractoriness. Its inhibitory effect on sodium channels is effective in treating potassium aggravated myotonia.[6]
