Abstract

Sympathetically maintained peripheral neuropathic pain syndromes are relieved by topically applying, to the affected region of a patient suffering from such pain, a pain relieving amount of an aqueous gel comprising clonidine, a water-gelling amount of a pharmaceutically acceptable gelling agent and having a physiologically tolerable pH value. Pain relief was achieved with applied amounts of clonidine in the range of about 2 milligrams per day to about 6 mg per day.
