Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"In a randomized, double-blinded and cross-over study, the analgesic effect of memantine (a drug which reduces the excitability of sensitized neurons in the dorsal horn) was examined in 19 patients with chronic pain after nerve injury."9.09Memantine (a N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist) in the treatment of neuropathic pain after amputation or surgery: a randomized, double-blinded, cross-over study. ( Gottrup, H; Jensen, TS; Kristensen, AG; Nikolajsen, L, 2000)
"We conclude that memantine can reduce intensity of phantom limb pain and might also prevent the development of PLP."5.12Continuous brachial plexus blockade in combination with the NMDA receptor antagonist memantine prevents phantom pain in acute traumatic upper limb amputees. ( Birbaumer, N; Konrad, CJ; Schaller, HE; Schley, M; Schmelz, M; Topfner, S; Wiech, K, 2007)
