The painful syndromes most commonly encountered in general practice which are relieved by SARAPIN treatment may be listed as follows:

Sciatic Pain Intercostal Neuralgia Alchoholic Neuritis Occipital Neuralgia

Brachial Plexus Neuralgia Meralgia Paresthetica Lumbar Neuralgia Trigeminal Neuralgia

These and allied conditions may be treated with success in a majority of cases by local infiltration or by nerve block. For such treatment, SARAPIN holds advantages over other forms of medication. Its selective action on the C fibers and its complete lack of effect on motor nerves make SARAPIN superior to such anesthetics as procaine which act merely by anesthetizing the entire nerve and surrounding tissue. Furthermore, there is no tissue destruction as is the case when alcohol is used; there are no systemic reactions, and a lasting effect is obtained.
