    Preemptive levetiracetam decreases postoperative pain in rats

  • Original language description

    OBJECTIVES: Preemptive versus therapeutic effects of levetiracetam were investigated in a model of postoperative incisional pain in rats. METHODS: Levetiracetam (250, 500, and 1000 mg/kg intraperitoneal (i.p.) or morphine (5 mg/kg i.p.) was administeredeither 1 h before (preemptive administration) or 1 h after (therapeutic administration) incisional surgery to the hind paw of rats. The effects of levetiracetam were evaluated based on thermal hyperalgesia measured by the plantar test. RESULTS: All preoperatively treated levetiracetam groups showed a significant, dose dependent, increase in paw withdrawal latency. However, post-incisional administration of levetiracetam produced no antihyperalgesic effect at any dose or at any time. In contrast, post-incisional administration of morphine reduced thermal hyperalgesia, while preemptive administration of morphine did not produce any significant antihyperalgesic effects. CONCLUSION: The present results suggest that levetiracetam might posse

    Preemptivně podaný levetiracetam snižuje postooperační bolest u potkanů

  • Czech description

    Na modelu termální hyperalgézie byla prokázána antihyperalgická účinnost levetiracetamu v případě preemptivního podání potkanům, kterým byla v anestezii provedena incize pravé zadní planty. V případě terapeutické (postoperační) aplikace se tento účinek neobjevil. Uvedené pozorování tedy svědčí pro možné preemptivně analgetické působení levetiracetamu.
