Benzydamine hydrochloride is a pharmaceutical salt with the chemical formula C₁₉H₂₃N₃O·HCl. Its structure features an indazole ring as the core, linked to a benzyl group and a 3-(dimethylamino)propoxy chain. The basic dimethylamino group is protonated, forming the water-soluble hydrochloride salt. This non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) acts primarily as a local analgesic and anti-inflammatory agent, likely through membrane stabilization and prostaglandin inhibition. It is used topically in mouthwashes and sprays to treat inflammatory conditions of the mouth and throat.

Benzydamine hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt of benzydamine, a medicinally active compound with analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic properties. It is chemically classified as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with a unique structure.
Its chemical name is 1-benzyl-3-[3-(dimethylamino)propoxy]-1H-indazole hydrochloride.
Indazole Core: The central structure is an indazole ring system—a fused bicyclic aromatic ring containing a five-membered ring with two adjacent nitrogen atoms. This is a key pharmacophore.
Benzyl Group: A benzyl group (C₆H₅-CH₂-) is attached to the nitrogen (N-1) of the indazole ring. This lipophilic group contributes to membrane permeability and receptor binding.
Aminoalkoxy Chain: A three-carbon chain (propoxy linker) connects the indazole ring to a terminal tertiary dimethylamino group (-N(CH₃)₂). This basic nitrogen center is crucial for its pharmacological activity.
Hydrochloride Salt: The molecule exists as a hydrochloride salt, where the dimethylamino group is protonated, forming a positively charged ammonium ion ([-NH(CH₃)₂]⁺) paired with a chloride counterion (Cl⁻). This salt form enhances the compound's water solubility and stability for pharmaceutical formulation.
While its exact mechanism is not fully elucidated, it primarily functions as a local anti-inflammatory agent. Its action is strongly linked to the stabilization of cell membranes (lysosomal membranes) and the inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis, similar to other NSAIDs, though it may have a more localized, non-systemic effect.
Its main use is topical (not systemic) treatment of inflammatory conditions of the mouth and throat (e.g., pharyngitis, tonsillitis, and post-surgical pain in dentistry). It is commonly found as a mouthwash, spray, or lozenge. The structure's amphiphilic nature (containing both lipophilic and hydrophilic regions) aids in its local penetration and action on mucous membranes.
This product is a non-specific anti-inflammatory drug with anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and analgesic effects.
