Benzocaine is metabolized into at least three compounds by acetylation and hydrolysis. Benzocaine and its acetylated metabolite are rapidly eliminated across the gills while the more polar de-ethylated and de-ethylated-acetylated metabolites are excreted at slower rates primarily in the urine.The pharmacokinetics of chloramphenicol succinate have been described by a 2-compartment model. The reported values for the apparent volume of distribution range from 0.2 to 3.1 L/kg. Chloramphenicol succinate is metabolised (hydrolysed) by esterases in the body to active chloramphenicol.
Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
