Filter by:Post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN) is the most frequent complications related to herpes zoster, and can persist for months or even years, and require extensive treatment. For this purpose, pharmacological therapies based on tricyclic antidepressants (amitriptyline), central nervous system depressants (pregabalin) and also opioids, have been stablished. However, all the drugs mentioned can cause serious systemic adverse effects that worsen the patient's quality of life. To avoid these complications, topical therapies based on Capsaicin or Lidocaine 5% patches have been developed. However, these treatments have shown dissimilar results in controlling PHN, so a mixed formulation of lidocaine/tetracaine could show better results. For these reasons, the main objective of our work is to evaluate the plasma levels of lidocaine derived from the application of a topical formulation of lidocaine derived from the application of a topical formulation of lidocaine 23%/tetracaine 7% in patients with neuropathic pain.
Thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) is the gold standard analgesia of the laparotomy in major abdominal surgery and can be associated with intravenous lidocaine or subtituted by intravenous lidocaine when TEA is contraindicated and in order to reduce the use of the morphinics in the perioperative period. Side effects can be paralytic ileus or nausea and vomiting and delay the enhanced recovery after surgery. Intravenous lidocaine and TEA share several properties like anti hyperalgesia, anti inflammatory effect, intestinal process, anti tumoral effect… which suggests an additive effect of their combination that was not studied yet.
This is a study aimed at evaluating the efficacy of a topical anesthesia (test product) compared to placebo in adult patients of phototypes I to III, with indication of treatment of CO2 fractional laser in the forehead. In addition to efficacy, safety and tolerability of the product have been studied. The product under investigation is a topical formulation containing lidocaine 25 mg/g and prilocaine 25mg/g which in previous studies performed in the same institution with healthy subjects in adulthood showed faster onset than other formulations. In these previous studies, the product was well tolerated, and there were no signs of a skin reaction or adverse events of a systemic nature. The CO2 fractional laser treatment is routinely used by plastic surgery and dermatology for treatment with aesthetic purposes of skin imperfections. It's a procedure until certain painful point, which as a rule is performed without prior use of topical anesthetic. The test product is believed to produce a clinically significant reduction of pain when compared to placebo, during the application of CO2 laser on the forehead for the aesthetic treatment of the face.
