Sample Use Guides

rat incision: Ipsilateral SC injections (2 mg/0.4 mL) of R-duloxetine reduced both postoperative allodynia and hyperalgesia by approximately 89% to 99% in the area under the curve of skin responses next to incision over 5 days. Systemic intraperitoneal injections at a higher dosage (10 mg) had smaller analgesic effects (reduced by approximately 53%-69%), whereas contralateral SC injections (10 mg) were ineffective.
