OBJECTIVE Propofol injection can cause distressing pain, and no method can inhibit it completely. Neither lidocaine nor magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) was sufficient to prevent pain from the injection of propofol. This prospective, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was designed to investigate the efficacy of the MgSO4 plus lidocaine on suppressing propofol injection pain. METHODS Three hundred women received 300 mg MgSO4 (Group M), 40 mg lidocaine (Group L), or 300 mg MgSO4 plus 40 mg lidocaine (Group M+L). This was followed by administration of 50 mg propofol. Pain scores, behavior-related responses, and diameter of the vein were recorded following the injection of propofol. RESULTS Patients in Group M + L had lower pain scores. Patients' behavior-related responses in Group M + L were also better compared with the other groups. There were no differences in pain scores between Group L and Group M. The target vein diameter change in Group M and Group M + L was more obvious than in Group L. CONCLUSIONS Administration of 300 mg MgSO4 plus 40 mg lidocaine reduces propofol injection pain very well. No complications were observed in the treatment groups.

D008012 Lidocaine A local anesthetic and cardiac depressant used as an antiarrhythmia agent. Its actions are more intense and its effects more prolonged than those of PROCAINE but its duration of action is shorter than that of BUPIVACAINE or PRILOCAINE.

D008278 Magnesium Sulfate A small colorless crystal used as an anticonvulsant, a cathartic, and an electrolyte replenisher in the treatment of pre-eclampsia and eclampsia. It causes direct inhibition of action potentials in myometrial muscle cells. Excitation and contraction are uncoupled, which decreases the frequency and force of contractions.
