Benzocaine-Induced Methemoglobinemia: A Case Report.

Keith T Veltri, Ellen Rudnick.   

Abstract

Topical anesthetics, such as benzocaine, have been reported to cause methemoglobinemia, in which hemoglobin is unable to release oxygen effectively to body tissues. The pathophysiology, symptoms, and treatment of a 46-year-old patient are examined.
