etidronate and Trigeminal Neuralgia

etidronate has been researched along with Trigeminal Neuralgia in 3 studies

Etidronic Acid: A diphosphonate which affects calcium metabolism. It inhibits ectopic calcification and slows down bone resorption and bone turnover.
etidronic acid : A 1,1-bis(phosphonic acid) that is (ethane-1,1-diyl)bis(phosphonic acid) having a hydroxy substituent at the 1-position. It inhibits the formation, growth, and dissolution of hydroxyapatite crystals by chemisorption to calcium phosphate surfaces.

Trigeminal Neuralgia: A syndrome characterized by recurrent episodes of excruciating pain lasting several seconds or longer in the sensory distribution of the TRIGEMINAL NERVE. Pain may be initiated by stimulation of trigger points on the face, lips, or gums or by movement of facial muscles or chewing. Associated conditions include MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, vascular anomalies, ANEURYSMS, and neoplasms. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p187)

"Therefore, the suggested method of the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia, being simple in use, effectively removes the painful syndrome, contributing to a noticeable reduction of the doses of the toxic drugs of the carbamazepine type."2.67[Treatment of patients with trigeminal neuralgia by xidifon electrophoresis].
