Peripheral nerve block adjuncts: which medication to choose? A narrative review of the current literature.
Pain Management 2023 November
Enhancing the effect of peripheral nerve blockade by adding other classes of medications has long history of trial and error. Studies have identified multiple potentially beneficial adjuncts that work to either speed the onset of analgesia or prolong its duration. The benefits of these adjuncts must be weighed against the risks of systemic negative side effects. To date, the most commonly used adjuncts, and ones with the most robust scientific efficacy are, dexamethasone, dexmedetomidine and buprenorphine. This narrative review will discuss several classes of local anesthetic adjuncts and provide evidence for the clinical efficacy and side effect profile of the most commonly studied medications.
