Please note, this OEL/ADE monograph also applies to Sodium benzoate (CAS RN 532-32-1), Magnesium benzoate (CAS RN 553-70-8), Zinc benzoate (CAS RN 553-72-0), Benzyl alcohol (CAS RN 100-51-6), Potassium benzoate (CAS RN 582-25-2), Ammonium benzoate (CAS RN 1863-63-4), Calcium benzoate (CAS RN 2090-05-3), and Potassium benzoate trihydrate (CAS RN 6100-02-3). Benzonatate is indicated for cough. Suppresses cough through a peripheral action, anesthetizing the stretch or cough receptors of vagal afferent fibers, which are located in the respiratory passages, lungs, and pleura; also, may suppress transmission of the cough reflex by a central mechanism, at the level of the medulla. Benzonatate suppresses cough through a peripheral action, anesthetizing the stretch or cough receptors of vagal afferent fibers, which are located in the respiratory passages, lungs, and pleura. Benzonatate suppress transmission of the cough reflex by a central mechanism, at the level of the medulla in the brain. When applied locally, benzonatate has anesthetic effects by binding within the intracellular portion of voltage-gated sodium channels, decreasing the rate of membrane depolarization and increasing the threshold for electrical excitability. Unlike narcotics, benzonatate has no inhibitory effects on the respiratory center.
