適応症:

Dehydrated Alcohol Injection, USP is indicated for therapeutic neurolysis of nerves or ganglia for the relief of intractable chronic pain in such conditions as inoperable cancer and trigeminal neuralgia (tic douloureux), in patients for whom neurosurgical procedures are contraindicated. Relief of trigeminal neuralgia usually is only temporary. Other conditions for which injection of alcohol has been reported include glossopharyngeal neuralgia,angina pectoris and severe claudication due to peripheral vascular insufficiency. Alcohol concentrations of 40 to 50% (prepared by appropriate dilution of dehydrated alcohol) have been used for epidural or individual motor nerve injections to control certain manifestations of cerebral palsy and spastic paraplegia. Similar concentrations also have been injected for celiac plexus block to relieve pain of inoperable upper abdominal cancer, and have been injected intra-and subcutaneously for relief of intractable pruritus ani. Subarachnoid injection of dehydrated alcohol is

DEHYDRATED ALCOHOL INJECTION, USP
For Therapeutic Neurolysis
Rx only
DESCRIPTION:
Dehydrated Alcohol Injection, USP consists of not less than 98% by
volume of ethanol (ethyl alcohol).
Dehydrated alcohol is hypobaric in relation to the cerebrospinal
fluid. It is injected proximate to nerve
tissues and into spinal subarachnoid spaces to produce degeneration of
nerve function (neurolysis) for
control of chronic pain.
The product contains no bacteriostat or antimicrobial agent (other
than ethanol) and no added buffer.
Dehydrated alcohol USP is a clear, colorless liquid miscible with
water and has the following
structural formula:
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY:
When alcohol is injected in close proximity to nerve tissues, it
produces neuritis and nerve
degeneration (neurolysis). Deliberate injury to selected spinal
nerves, peripheral nerves, or ganglia by
injection of alcohol results in more or less enduring block of
sensory, motor and autonomic function.
The injection of alcohol used for therapeutic neurolysis involves
amounts too small to produce
significant systemic effects of ethanol.
Ninety to 98% of ethyl alcohol that enters the body is completely
oxidized.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE:
Dehydrated Alcohol Injection, USP is indicated for therapeutic
neurolysis of nerves or ganglia for the
relief of intractable chronic pain in such conditions as inoperable
cancer and trigeminal neuralgia (tic
douloureux), in patients for whom neurosurgical procedures are
contraindicated. Relief of trigeminal
neuralgia usually is only temporary. Other conditions for which
injection of alcohol has been reported
include glossopharyngeal neuralgia,angina pectoris and severe
claudication due to peripheral vascular
insufficiency.
