Abstract

See full text

A process is provided which is useful in alleviating inflammation of tendons and/or joints in a patient in need of such treatment. The process comprises administering a vasodilator to the inflamed tissue, either topically or by injection. Advantageously, the vasodilator is papaverine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof such as papaverine hydrochloride. Advantageously, the papaverine hydrochloride may be administered topically in a composition comprising a carrier. The carrier dissolves the papaverine hydrochloride and enables it to penetrate the skin and be absorbed into the inflamed tissue.
