Ethyl 3-aminobenzoate methanesulfonate is a derivative of a benzocaie isomer. Ethyl 3-aminobenzoate methanesulfonate is mainly used in research as an anesthetic for amphibians, fishs, and reptiles. Ethyl 3-aminobenzoate methanesulfonate works by blocking the sodium channels in the cell membrane, which prevents the influx of sodium ions into the cell. This prevents the cells from receiving the necessary signals for normal functioning, resulting in sedation and analgesia.
