Question

Long acting local anesthetic​

Answer 1

Answer:

Bupivacaine HCl is approximately 90% to 95% bound to serum proteins, mostly to high-affinity, low-capacity sites on α1-acid glycoprotein.

Because bupivacaine HCl is so highly protein bound, it was the longest-acting local amide anesthetic on the market, until the introduction of the liposomal formulation.
