N2  - According to Lundy1 "Good surface anesthetics are not common. One that is used with considerable satisfaction is butyn. It is used as a surface anesthetic in 2 per cent solution. It is used for anesthetizing the throat and nose by spraying, a small amount of 5 or 10 per cent solution being used. In a 5 or 10 per cent solution as a spray, butyn takes the place of a 10 to 20 per cent cocaine spray for anesthetizing the throat and larynx prior to the introduction of the intratracheal tube under general anesthesia. Butyn is also used with considerable satisfaction by ophthalmologists in an ophthalmic ointment of 2 per cent concentration."In the use of butyn one should be on guard for idiosyncrasy, since occasions have developed when it seemed that the patient was hypersensitive to butyn. The butyn solution is somewhat irritating when instilled into the eye,
