procaine has been researched along with Myofascial Trigger Point Pain in 2 studies
Procaine: A local anesthetic of the ester type that has a slow onset and a short duration of action. It is mainly used for infiltration anesthesia, peripheral nerve block, and spinal block. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p1016).
procaine : A benzoate ester, formally the result of esterification of 4-aminobenzoic acid with 2-diethylaminoethanol but formed experimentally by reaction of ethyl 4-aminobenzoate with 2-diethylaminoethanol.

Participants in this study underwent TPIs by the following method. The needle was inserted into the trigger point with the goal of eliciting a local twitch responses(LTRs). When a LTR was obtained, 0.1mL of randomized drug was injected into that location within the muscle. This was repeated until LTRs disappeared, or 1.0mL had been injected, whichever came first. This was performed in a similar manner for all affected muscles, up to a maximum of 2mL. Participants self-report their brief pain inventory at each of their injections (up to four subsequent injections) based off of the standardized Numeric Rating pain Scale (NRS). The NRS is nationally recognized numeric scale from zero to ten, with zero being an example of no pain, one to three would demonstrate mild pain, four to six would be moderate pain, seven to nine would be severe pain and a ten would be the worst pain possible. Improvement in BPI was determined if their NRS score went down with each injection(s). (NCT03028012)
Timeframe: Pre-Post Injections Up to Three Months
| Intervention | Participants (Count of Participants) |
|---|---|
| Ketorolac | 1 |
| Lidocaine | 0 |
| Dexamethasone | 0 |
The BPI was evaluated on a scale from 0-10. Zero would mean no interference and 10 would be calculated at complete interferences. We used a 7-point questionnaire about pain. All scores were calculated at baseline and three months. (NCT03028012)
