Description
Abstract
The article is devoted to the history of the discovery, research and use of lidocaine, the first local anesthetic of the amide series. Historical facts, rare illustrations, biographies of chemists Nils Löfgren and Bengt Lundqvist, who contributed to the creation of one of the most effective and common local anesthetics and antiarrhythmic drugs in the world, are given.
