Tetracaine ( ametop ) compared to placebo for reducing pain associated with intramuscular injection of palivizumab ( synagis ) . Infants receive many painful immunizations before they are 2 years old . The purpose of this study was to evaluate if topical tetracaine reduces the pain of intramuscular palivizumab compared to placebo . There were two study injections , one with tetracaine and one with placebo . Pain was scored by their parents and a pediatric nurse . Topical tetracaine was not associated with a significant reduction in pain score , although it did lead to faster recovery times . Additional pain-reduction strategies are required .
