[Combination therapy of transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation and iontophoresis with benzydamine and diclofenac].
Combined Therapy of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation and Iontophoresis with Benzydamine and Diclofenac. The combination of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and the iontophoresis of benzydamine and diclofenac in a counter-current field is a new method in the treatment of chronical pain of the head and neck region. Prior to a clinical study this method was tested in a preliminary examination in 15 healthy volunteers. Clinical and physical data were investigated from which a theoretical maximum value of the quantity of iontophorised non-steroidal antiphlogistics (NSAI) could be calculated. The actual achievable absorption is discussed. Based on these data it is concluded that a good effective tissue concentration of benzydamine and diclofenac can be achieved with iontophoresis by means of TENS.
