Ropivacaine

A long-acting amide-type local anesthetic used for regional anesthesia and analgesia, including epidural, peripheral nerve, and local infiltration anesthesia. It acts primarily by reversibly blocking voltage-gated sodium channels in nerve fibers, thereby inhibiting the generation and propagation of action potentials. Ropivacaine is the pure S-enantiomer and has lower cardiotoxic and central nervous system toxicity than bupivacaine
