[ Local treatment of periarthropathies with the 5-HT3-receptor-antagonist tropisetron ] . All substances used in the local treatment for periarthropathies , such as local anesthetics , corticosteroids or botulinum toxin A , possess certain disadvantages . Finding alternatives to these agents in the local treatment of the disease therefore seems desirable . Comparative studies proved a local injection of the 5-HT3 receptor antagonist , tropisetron ( Navoban ( R ) ) , to be more effective than an injection of the local anesthetic prilocaine in treating periarthropathies of different localizations . A comparison between the local injection of 10 mg of depot dexamethasone combined with 60 mg of lidocaine and 5 mg of tropisetron showed that the two regimens had the same effect . These findings demonstrate that a local injection of 5 mg tropisetron does represent an alternative to the local treatment with corticosteriods plus local anesthetics . However , these results should be corroborated by additional studies .
