简要总结

Neuropathic pain is caused by a virus commonly associated with chicken pox. This virus may become dormant in the nervous system and later reactivate causing herpes zoster, also known as "shingles". Post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN) is a persistent pain in the area of healed skin lesions. This study will test the safety and efficacy of treating PHN patients with the analgesic patch, Bupivacaine TTS (Eladur™).
