Neurotropin Research Study

The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research is conducting a study on the use of Neurotropin to treat acute dental and pain associated with complex regional pain syndromes I and II (RSD and Causalgia). Neurotropin is a medication that is used currently in Japan to treat RSD and other painful conditions.

Subjects are now being recruited for this outpatient, double blind, placebo-controlled crossover study. For the initial trial of this drug in the United States, individuals who have been diagnosed within one year with CRPS Type I or II in only one limb can be referred by their physician. Also, an option has been approved for those patients who complete the trial and request an additional month on the agent placebo or active drug that resulted in apparent improvement.
