A formulation and methods for inducing sustained regional local anesthesia in a patient comprising a substrate comprising a local anesthetic and an effective amount of a biocompatible, biodegradable, controlled release material prolonging the release of the local anesthetic from the substrate to obtain a reversible local anesthesia when implanted or injected in a patient, and a pharmaceutically acceptable, i.e., non-toxic, non-glucocorticoid augmenting agent effective to prolong the duration of the local anesthesia for a time period longer than that obtainable from the substrate without the augmenting agent.

Formulations and methods for providing prolonged local anesthesia

Methods and formulations for inducing substantially safer local anesthesia in a patient are provided. The methods comprise administering, to a patient in need thereof, a substrate containing a local anesthetic and an effective amount of a biocompatible, biodegradable, controlled release material to safely obtain a reversible nerve blockade when implanted or injected in a patient.
