Adverse Reaction

Particularly in horses, phenomena of excitability to the CNS may be observed (agitation, tremors, convulsions) following the administration of procaine, in very rare occasions.
Precaution
Perform local anaesthesia at ambient temperature. At higher temperatures, the risk of toxic reactions is higher owing to the greater absorption of procaine.
