It is believed that damage to somatic sensory nerves causes a somatic sensory : loss. Such damage can be caused by a variety of means including trauma, diseases such. Lu as diabetes, herpes zoster and late-stage cancer, chemotherapy, or by a chemical injury. EE
It is believed that neural pain circuits rewire themselves, both anatomically and, a. CL } 15 biochemically, after nerve injury. In many patients suffering from damage to somatic ~~ ., BRT sensory nerves, negative symptoms such as numbness are joined by positive sensations, So : involving a sort of false sensation of pain. The experience canrange from mild aoe

In other cases, malabsorption of oral preparations have resulted in Ce > Lh subtherapeutic plasma levels. In other cases, the agents have relatively short plasma ~~ Ca half-lives, necessitating inconveniently frequent dosing. In general, oral delivery RET . : ~ "involves a time delay as the analgesic is absorbed via the digestive system before CL entering the bloodstream. A number of agents which have traditionally been oo

Some analgesics are particularly . prone to cause or contribute to kidney or liver damage when administered orally.
Although other forms of delivery of pharmaceuticals agents are known, each has. its drawbacks. Parenteral (i.e., intravenously or intramuscularly injected) administration is inconvenient and expensive, and is rarely used outside the hospital. Inhalation is - believed to be not feasible with many analgesic agents currently in use.
Therefore, there is a need for an analgesic delivery system which provides effective and acceptable levels, while preferably avoiding or reducing undesired effects such as liver damage or gastrointestinal side effects.

Whenever nerves are damaged, for example, by trauma, by diseases such as diabetes, herpes zoster, or late-stage cancer, or by chemical injury (e.g, as an untoward consequence of agents including the false-nucleoside anti-HIV pharmaceuticals), neural pain circuits rewire themselves, anatomically and/or biochemically. Thus, following an injury, new sodium channels are formed which is believed to constitute the basis for chronic pain development. Through a similar action in the dorsal root ganglia, chronic regional pain syndromes may develop. Each time one of these sodium channels depolarizes, a nerve impulse originates. Because there are so many sodium channels, there may be a constant cascade of nerve impulses, causing allodynia, burning sensations, and/or dysesthesias. It is believed that some chronic pains may be mediated through sodium channels in nerve cells. Thus, it is believed that amine containing

In such cases, it is believed that the presence of the. oo non-polar moiety prevents or inhibits a complete uptake of the amine containing compound having biphasic solubility through the nerve cell membrane.
