Local anesthetics stop the transmission of neuronal signals by interfering with the function of ion channels in the neuron membrane. To prevent depolarization, local anesthetic molecules are thought to bind to sodium channels, stabilizing them in an inactive state. The local anesthetic must get through the cell membrane to have an impact because this effect is mediated from within the cell. Nerve fibres exhibit varying sensitivities to local anesthetics: small fibres are more susceptible than larger ones, and...
