Description
Mexiletine is an orally effective antiarrhythmic agent which has also been found to be effective for myotonia and neuropathic pain. Mexiletine exerts its efficacy through blocking sodium channels (IC50 : 75±8 μM for tonic block, 23.6±2.8 μM for use-dependent block), therefore can be used for cardiovascular and neurological research.

How to use
In Vitro:
Mexiletine (10µM, 48 h) increases peak INa and late INa in HEK293A cells transfected with SCN5A-WT or SCN5A-1795insD while Mexiletine (10µM, 5 min) blocks the late INa.
In Vivo:
Mexiletine (30, 100 mg/kg, p.o., acute administration) reverses both mechanical allodynia and cold hyperalgesia in Oxaliplatin induced rats.
