New Local Anesthetic Found at Johns Hopkins
Baltimore researchers led by Dr. David I Macht report a local anesthetic benzy alcohol or phenmethyol that is about forty times less toxic than cocaine. Its discovery arose from benzyl benzoate work, with accidental taste revealing numbing effects. Animal tests were successful and Johns Hopkins Hospital began using it amid cocaine shortages last spring.
